 The Apostle felt himself isolated. Not only had the mass of Christians abandoned him, but his companions in labor had gone away. In the providence of God he was to be alone. (Ephesians 1 by J.N. Darby)
 It is not said that Demas had ceased to be a Christian—had publicly renounced the Lord; but it was not in his heart to bear the cross with the Apostle. (Ephesians 1 by J.N. Darby)
 Demas had become cold, yielding to the influences of the age; and, caring no longer to be a "partaker of the afflictions of the gospel," or to be identified with God's vessel of testimony, now a poor despised prisoner, he had, under some pretext or other, abandoned the Apostle and departed to Thessalonica. (article #86543)
 Once Paul had mentioned him {Demas} conjointly with others as a fellow laborer {Phm. 1:24}; again, he sends a salutation in his name, in conjunction with “Luke, the beloved physician” (Col. 4:14); and now he has abandoned the testimony. (Exposition of 2 Timothy: 2 Timothy 4:9-22 by E. Dennett)

Two of the earliest MSS. read here Gaul for Galatia, as do several other authorities. So early did ignorance or evil intent tamper with the copies of Holy Scripture.
