If you remember from last week, Paul is telling his storyNow, at the end of his autobiography he mentions Peter (Cephas) – this is the only record of them ever having a personal encounter • as Paul approaches the primary purpose of his letter • he uses this story to illustrate his central point – the leaders of the Church in Jerusalem recognized the difference between his ministry and Peter’s “they saw that I had been entrusted with the gospel to the uncircumcised, just as Peter had been entrusted to the circumcised” (v. 7) • he used those “circumcision” terms to distinguish between Gentiles and Jews, because he wanted to make a point • they all belonged to Jesus, but Jewish believers had an obligation that did not apply to Gentiles ◦ circumcision is shorthand for all the laws of Moses
