11:1-18 Jews traditionally kept themselves separate and did not eat or associate socially with Gentiles (10:28; 22:21-22; see John 4:9, 27; 18:28; Gal 2:12-14). Therefore, when the Jewish believers in Jerusalem learned that Gentiles had received the word of God, they criticized Peter’s unconventional actions and wanted an explanation, which Peter provided.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
ἀνέβη & εἰς Ἰερουσαλήμ
went_up & to Jerusalem
Luke says that Peter came up because that was the customary way of speaking about traveling to Jerusalem, since that city is up on a mountain. Alternate translation: [returned to Jerusalem]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
οἱ ἐκ περιτομῆς
the_‹ones› of /the/_circumcision
As in 10:45, Luke is using the term circumcision by association to identify as Jewish these believers who disputed with Peter. They were likely to have been strictly observant Jews who followed the teaching of the Pharisees about Jews visiting with Gentiles. See the discussion of this in the General Notes to Chapter 10. Alternate translation: [some believers who were strictly observant Jews]
