Commentary on Galatians 2:7
Theological / DevotionalGospel of the uncircumcision. There are not two different gospels, one for the circumcised and the other for the uncircumcised. As Paul makes clear in chs. 3 and 4, both Jew and Gentile are saved by faith and not by the works of the law (see ch. 3:28). The works of the law are really not a part of the gospel at all. The difference was not in the message, but in the prior status of those to whom it was given.
Unto Peter. There are two circles of hearers — Jew and Gentile — but one gospel. Paul was commissioned an ambassador to one and Peter to the other (see vs. 7-9).
