In the quantum theory of gravity the potential between two celestial bodies is calculated up to order (v/c)^2 by treating the celestial bodies as assemblies of nucleons. It is necessary to calculate three-body potentials in order to get the potential proportional to G^2, G being the gravitational constant. A method is discussed for determing the retarded potential uniquely. The potential obtained coincides with the calssical one given by Einstein, Infeld and Hoffman. The perihelion motion of the Mercury is also discussed.
