Augustine of Hippo, on Gal 2:3

“But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Gentile, was compelled to be circumcised.”

“It was because of the intrigues of false brethren that Titus was not compelled to be circumcised. It was not possible to require circumcision of him. Those who had crept in to spy on their liberty had a vehement expectation and desire for the circumcision of Titus. They wanted, with Paul's testimony and consent, to preach circumcision as necessary to salvation.”
