Best Answer

Acts has Barnabas assigned as a mentor to Saul, later named Paul, by the Jerusalem elders in order to educate him and play a part in the Gentile church as an equal to Paul. This compares to Paul's own account, in which Barnabas was never more than a loyal assistant. The effect in Acts is to diminish somewhat the significance of Paul's role in the spread of Christianity, raising questions about the objectivity of its author.
