Did Paul expect Gentiles to keep the Torah? Most people would say, “Absolutely not.” After all, Paul is often seen as the one who set Christians free from the Law. But is that what Paul really taught?
In this episode of Journey with the Jewish Paul, we explore this surprising truth: Paul taught Torah to Gentile believers—and expected them to live by its wisdom. But not as Jews.
Paul’s letters reveal that he believed Gentiles could belong to the family of Abraham without becoming Jewish—and still benefit from the Torah’s guidance. So what did Paul mean when he told Gentiles to avoid idolatry, uphold purity, and even celebrate Passover?
Discover why Paul should be seen as a Teacher of Torah to the Nations, and why recovering this vision opens powerful new bridges between Jews and Christians today.
