Galatians 6:16 Context
14But God forbid that I should glory, saue in the Crosse of our Lord Iesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified vnto me, & I vnto the world. 15For in Christ Iesus neither circumcision auaileth any thing nor vncircumcision, but a new creature. 16And as many as walke according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercie, and vpon the Israel of God. 17From henceforth let no man trouble mee, for I beare in my body the markes of the Lord Iesus. 18Brethren, the grace of our Lord Iesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen. Unto the Galatians, written from Rome.

Ga 6:16 As many as walk according to this rule. The rule just named in Ga 6:15. A benediction is pronounced upon all such. And upon the Israel of God. Rather, "Even upon", etc. The Greek word "kai" often means "even", and does here, as the Israel of God does not differ from those who follow "this rule".
