Galatians 2:12 in Context — Galatians 2
10 Solamente [nos pidieron] que nos acordásemos de los pobres; lo mismo que fuí también solícito en hacer.
11 Empero viniendo Pedro á Antioquía, le resistí en la cara, porque era de condenar.
12 Porque antes que viniesen unos [de parte] de Jacobo, comía con los Gentiles; mas después que vinieron, se retraía y apartaba, teniendo miedo de los que eran de la circuncisión.
13 Y á su disimulación consentían también los otros Judíos; de tal manera que aun Bernabé fué también llevado [de ellos] en su simulación.
14 Mas cuando vi que no andaban derechamente conforme á la verdad del evangelio, dije á Pedro delante de todos: Si tú, siendo Judío, vives como los Gentiles y no como Judío, ¿por qué constriñes á los Gentiles á judaizar?
