This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Not sinners of the Gentiles (ouk ex ethnōn hamartōloi). The Jews regarded all Gentiles as “sinners” in contrast with themselves (cf. Mat 26:45 “sinners” and Luk 18:32 “Gentiles”). It is not clear whether Gal 2:15-21 were spoken by Paul to Peter or whether Paul is now simply addressing the Galatians in the light of the controversy with Peter. Burton thinks that he is “mentally addressing Peter, if not quoting from what he said to him.”
