Galatians 2:5

Not really.  I’m thinking, however, that Gal 1.6 may indicate that the church there had only been in existence for a short time. 6Θαυμάζω ὅτι οὕτως ταχέως μετατίθεσθε ἀπὸ τοῦ καλέσαντος ὑμᾶς ἐν χάριτι [Χριστοῦ]εἰς ἕτερον εὐαγγέλιον

… search for truth, hear truth, learn truth, love truth, speak the truth, hold the truth, defend the truth till death.

– Jan Hus

    Or does  ταχεως perhaps convey the idea of how easily rather than how quickly or how soon, they were changed to the other gospel?
