Galatians 2:12-14

12 For before certain men came from James, ^ahe was eating with the Gentiles; but when they came he drew back and separated himself, fearing ^bthe circumcision party. ^{▼▼Or fearing those of the circumcision} 13 And the rest of the Jews acted hypocritically along with him, so that even Barnabas was led astray by their hypocrisy. 14 But when I saw that their ^dconduct was not in step with ^ethe truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas ^fbefore them all, “If you, though a Jew, ^glive like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how can you force the Gentiles to live like Jews?”
