Galatians 2:11-13 - Now when Peter had come to Antioch, I withstood him to his face, because he was to be blamed; for before certain men came from James, he would eat with the Gentiles; but when they came, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing those who were of the circumcision. And the rest of the Jews also played the hypocrite with him, so that even Barnabas was carried away with their hypocrisy. [NKJV]

What were the reasons for the clashes between Peter and Paul?

AnswerIn Galatians 2:11ff, Paul says that he publicly rebuked Peter for not treating uncircumcised Christians as equals. Their differences seem to have been over Peter's insistence that gentiles could not become Christians without first becoming Jews. A completely different view is given in Acts of the Apostles, which quite paradoxically portrays Peter as the sole architect of the policy of accepting uncircumcised gentiles, with Paul passively accepting instructions to preach to the gentiles. On this evidence there was no reason for any differences between Paul and Peter, and none evident in this book.
