JENNINGS: Yes. I've become fascinated by St. Paul, because -- not everybody likes the movie "The Last Temptation of Christ." But there is that great scene at the end of the movie where Jesus turns out to be dream, and Jesus encounters Paul preaching in a marketplace. And Jesus says: "No that's not the way the story goes at all." In fact, you know, I didn't do this. I wasn't -- I wasn't crucified. And Paul says: "Excuse me. You stick to your story, I'm sticking to mine."

Seems to me Jennings had the chronology wrong, too. Didn't Peter's vision and visit to Cornelius, opening the way to the Gentiles, come BEFORE Paul's first Gentile conversions?

As I recall, the 'big Gentile controversy' in Jerusalem was between Peter, on his return, with James the others.

Later on followed the council on whether circumcision was required...and that was supposed to be the confrontation between Peter & Paul that Jennings claimed? Wasn't it actually between Paul & the others, and then Peter weighed in, and sided with Paul?

Or is my chronology off?
