See Vanhoye, “La définition”, 396. Vanhoye then says (396) that Ramsay “montrait [. . .] une préférence [. . .] pour une traduction très différente.“ This does not seem so clear. W.M. Ramsay, A Historical Commentary on St. Paul’s Epistle to the Galatians (London: Hodder and Stoughton, 21900) 264, judges the translation “a different gospel which is nothing else save that there are some that . . . would pervert the Gospel of Christ” to be “perhaps the best.” A second proposal “I marvel that you are so quickly going over to another gospel, which is not a different gospel (from mine), except in so far as certain persons pervert the Gospel of Christ” (265) is qualified as “less probable perhaps, but more vigorous and more characteristic of Paul’s habit of compressing his meaning into the fewest words” (265) by him. Ramsay then names several “difficulties in the way of this second alternative” (265), among them “that by the time when Paul wrote, the original distinction between the two Greek words had been lost to such a degree that a pointed contrast between them could not have suggested itself to his mind” (265-266).

J.-P. Lémonon, L’épître aux Galates (Paris: Cerf, 2008) 59, translates the first part of v. 7 in the same way as Vanhoye: “qui n’est pas autre que (ceci).” He justifies this with the explicit reference to Vanhoye (63), but, in the exegesis of vv. 6-7, he does not mention any possibility of different gospels. For Lémonon (60), “il n’y a pas d’autre évangile.” Vanhoye, “La définition,” 396-397, n. 22, rightly remarks that the German translation of the commentary by Betz also corresponds to his interpretation. There, the beginning of Gal 1:7 runs as follows: “was [doch] auf nichts andres hinauskommt, als daß es gewisse Leute gibt, die . . .”; see H.D. Betz, Der Galaterbrief: Ein Kommentar zum Brief des Apostels Paulus an die Gemeinden in Galatien (transl. by S. Ann; Munich: Kaiser, 1988) 98. However, the English original has the text: “not that there is another [gospel], but there are some who . . .” (see Betz, Galatians, 6). In the German edition, the difference is not explained. Very similar to Ramsay is F. Zorell, Lexicon graecum Novi Testamenti (Roma: pib, 41990) 365 (s.v. εἰ), who translates: “(diversum evangelium) nihil est aliud quam quod quidam exsistunt qui vos perturbant.” Was Zorell influenced by W.M. Ramsay? However, cf. the translation by one of the most renowned experts on New Testament Greek M. Zerwick, Der Brief an die Galater (Düsseldorf: Patmos, 1964) 19: “zu einer anderen Heilsbotschaft, 7die es gar nicht gibt; nur daß da gewisse Leute sind, die . . .”
