Refusing to give way in submission · dominant
In Galatians 2:5, the first-person plural aorist active indicative form occurs in a denial of yielding "in submission even for a moment." The APB renders the clause, "We did not yield to them in submission even for a moment," within a statement about the truth of the gospel continuing.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Galatians 2:5, the APB presents the action as "did not yield" and connects it with "submission." That wording confirms the clause's overall presentation rather than isolating each element precisely.
