Matthew Poole and continuators on Galatians 2:11

11 But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed .

Of this motion of Peters to Antioch, the Scripture saying nothing of it, hath left Interpreters at liberty to guess variously as to the time; some judging it was before, some after the Councel held at Hierusalem, (of which we read Acts 15.) Those seem to judge best, who think it was after; for it was at Antioch, while Barnabas was with Paul; now Paul and Barnabas came from Hierusalem to Antioch, to bring thither the Decrees of that Councel; and at Antioch, Barnabas parted from Paul; after which we never read of them as being together. While Paul and Barnabas were together at Antioch, Peter came thither; where Paul saith, he was so far from taking instructions from him, that he withstood him to his face. Not by any acts of violence, (though the word often expresseth such acts;) but by words reproving, and blaming him; for, (saith he) he deserved it, he was to be blamed. Though the word signifies he was condemned, (which makes some to interpret it, as if Peter had met with some reprehension for his fact before Paul blamed him▪) yet there is no ground for it; for though the Greek participle be in the Praeterperfect Tense, yet it is an H[illegible: 1 letter]braism, and put for a Noun Verbal, which in Latine is sometimes expressed by the Future: according to which we translate it, see 1 Cor. 1.18. 2 Cor. 2.15. 2 Pet. 2.4. so our Interpreters have truly translated it according to the sense of the Text.
