‏ Galatians 1:11

 Which was preached ( το ευαγγελισθεν ). Play on the word  ευαγγελιον by first aorist passive participle of  ευαγγελιζω, "the gospel which was gospelized by me."

 It is not after man ( ουκ εστιν κατα ανθρωπον ). Not after a human standard and so he does not try to conform to the human ideal. Paul alone (1Co 3:3; 9:8; 15:32; Ro 3:15) in the N.T. uses this old and common idiom.
