{Tarried} (dietribon). Imperfect active of diatrib(935c),
old verb to pass time, seen already in  12:19  14:3,28 . {With
many others also} (meta kai heter(936e) poll(936e)). A time of general
revival and naturally so after the victory at Jerusalem. It is at
this point that it is probable that the sad incident took place
told by Paul in  Ga 2:11-21 . Peter came up to see how things
were going in Antioch after Paul's victory in Jerusalem. At first
Peter mingled freely with the Greek Christians without the
compunctions shown at Caesarea and for which he had to answer in
Jerusalem ( Ac 11:1-18 ). Rumours of Peter's conduct reached
Jerusalem and the Judaizers saw a chance to reopen the
controversy on the line of social customs, a matter not passed on
at the Jerusalem Conference. These Judaizers threaten Peter with
a new trial and he surrenders and is followed by Barnabas and all
the Jewish brethren in Antioch to the dismay of Paul who boldly
rebuked Peter and Barnabas and won them back to his view. It was
a crisis. Some would even date the Epistle to the Galatians at
this time also, an unlikely hypothesis.
