Yes, but this was at a time when the Jerusalem church was run by three
'pillars' (Gal 2:9). Paul does not say that James was the leader, or that
Peter 'submitted' to him, though this seems reasonable as an
interpretation. What happened subsequently, though? Did Peter remain a
leader at Jerusalem, or go his own separate way? There certainly seem to
have been tensions there.

Yes, there is a tenuous connection between the two documents, and likewise
Matthew's emphasis on righteousness mirrors James' nickname. Righteousness
was a common Jewish emphasis, however, and the connection between the
Epistle and James the Just seems equally tenuous! Is this any more than the
fact that these were all zealous Jews of a particular era?
