'Importance' in the Bible

From those leaders I gained nothing new. Whether they were men of importance or not, matters nothing to me--God recognizes no external distinctions. To me, at any rate, the leaders imparted nothing new.

For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision is of any importance; but only faith working through love.

For neither circumcision nor uncircumcision is of any importance; but only a renewed nature.
