Strongs On/Off
Context
Paul Rebukes Peter
2:11 But when Cephas came to Antioch , I opposed him to his face , because he had clearly done wrong .
2:12 Until certain people came from James , he had been eating with the Gentiles . But when they arrived , he stopped doing this and separated himself because he was afraid of those who were pro-circumcision .
2:13 And the rest of the Jews also joined with him in this hypocrisy , so that even Barnabas was led astray with them by their hypocrisy .
2:14 But when I saw that they were not behaving consistently with the truth of the gospel , I said to Cephas in front of them all , “If you , although you are a Jew , live like a Gentile and not like a Jew , how can you try to force the Gentiles to live like Jews ?”
