{He made no distinction between us and them} (outhen
diekrinen metaxu h(886d)(936e) te kai aut(936e)). He distinguished nothing
(first aorist active ind.) between (both dia and metaxu) both
(	e kai) us and them. In the matter of faith and conversion God
treated us Jews as heathen and the heathen as Jews. {Cleansing
their hearts by faith} (	(8869) pistei katharisas tas kardias
aut(936e)). Not by works nor by ceremonies. Peter here has a
thoroughly Pauline and Johannine idea of salvation for all both
Jew and Greek. Cf.  10:15 .
