Galatians 2:14 But when I saw . . . I said unto Peter. It was time to act decisively. Antioch was a great center. It was important that no wrong influences go forth from that center. Hence Paul administered the stern rebuke to Peter which follows. Before [them] all. The rebuke was on a public occasion. If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of Gentiles. He had, right there in Antioch, lived with the Gentile Christians according to their customs (Galatians 2:12). Why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews? Now, he insisted, at least by his example, that the Gentile Christians should become Jews. He virtually refused to fellowship them.
