Paul and Torah in Acts 21 (Responding to Rabbi Michael Skobac)
Listen now
Description
Does Acts 21 confirm that Paul taught against Torah-observance for Jews?  According to Rabbi Michael Skobac of Jews for Judaism, Acts 21 shows  Paul's "real position" was that Jews should stop obeying the Torah. I  walk through the whole account of Acts 21:17-26 to demonstrate that it  says the exact opposite! Acts 21 shows that Paul was a Torah-observant  Jew himself and taught other Jewish followers of Jesus to do the same.   00:00 - Introduction 1:26 - Rabbi Michael Skobac's Objection in Acts 21 2:38 - Responding to Rabbi Michael Skobac's Objection in Acts 21 12:05 - Was Paul just 'becoming a Jew to the Jews'?
