Rob Roy John Heywood when he published his book of English proverbs in 1546: Rob Peter and pay Paul: thou sayest I do; But thou robbest and poulst Peter and Paul too. The precise date is not the only aspect of this phrase that is uncertain. Scholars also disagree as to the thinking of whoever coined it. It has been suggested that the primary reason for Peter and Paul is the alliteration. But the similarities between Saint Peter and Saint Paul go deeper than their sharing of the letter P. The expression was coined at a time when almost all English Peter and Paul (1487) people were Christian and they by Bartolomeo Vivarini would have been well used to hearing Peter and Paul paired together. They were both apostles of Christ, both martyred in Rome. The essence of the meaning of rob Peter to pay Paul is the pointlessness of taking from one only to give to another who was similar. There are many churches of Saint Peter and Saint Paul in England and throughout Europe. It may not be the case, as it was asserted, that the phrase arose from the borrowing of money from one church to fund another, but from the familiarity of the notion of Peter and Paul being alike and inseparable.
