Blaspheming God
from Bereans of Trinity
Paul continues to tighten his net around even the most convinced moralists, in this case the Jews. What does it mean to be a Jew?

What are the five privileges Paul attributes to being a Jew? Additionally, what are the four prerogatives that the Jew possessed? In his imagined dialog with a Jewish moralist, what would have likely been the response of his imagined Jew to the things Paul listed in verses seventeen through twenty? How does Paul "lower the boom" on the Jewish moralist? What is the result among non-Jews to the disobedience of the Jew to the Law.
