• Did Peter assert that Gentile followers of the Jewish Jesus needed to adopt Jewish practices such as circumcision, observing kosher food laws, and keeping the Sabbath?

• Did Paul, in contrast, maintain that Jewish converts to Christianity were not obligated to adhere to the Mosaic law?

• In Paul's account of his confrontation with Peter, why does he not mention the outcome of the dispute? Was there an assumption that he had been defeated?

• Why does the book of Acts portray Peter and Paul as completely aligned? Does this portrayal deviate significantly from historical reality?

• Could the New Testament books of 1 and 2 Peter have been authored later by someone posing as Peter to illustrate his acceptance of Paul and his teachings?

• What motivated certain writings attributed to Peter to vilify Paul as the ultimate heretic, referred to as "my enemy"?
• Was the rift described in Galatians between Peter and Paul everlasting? Did they maintain fundamentally divergent interpretations of Jesus' teachings until their deaths?
