Description:Why did Peter cease eating with the Gentile Christians at Antioch (Gal 2:11-14) after defending his decision to eat with Cornelius before the entire Jerusalem church (Acts 11:1-18)? Beginning with a character study of Peter throughout the Gospels and Acts, Jack Gibson demonstrates that Peter is consistently portrayed as being a faithful disciple whose pre-Pentecost impetuosity is due to a lack of understanding of the message of Jesus and his post-Pentecost boldness is due to his newly-revealed understanding of this message. The historical background to the Antioch incident is considered, with special consideration given to the Jewish response to Roman rule, a response which was characterized by passive resistance through the period of the Roman prefects and Herod Agrippa (AD 6-44) and an increasing acceptance of active resistance by the general populace after Agrippa s death. Peter s relationship with James and Paul is analyzed, culminating in an evaluation of Peter s motivations for ceasing to eat with the Gentiles.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
