Many take Acts 18:6 to mean God gave up on the Jews. Is that what it says in context? If so, why did he take a Nazarite vow after his year and a half in Corinth?
Thought questions
Why should we be skeptical of the traditional interpretation of Acts 18:6? How did Paul leave the synagogue without leaving?
What kind of sins are generational and what kind of sins are only upon the person committing the sin?
What happened when he moved next door to the synagogue? How do we as believers “move next door to the synagogue”?
How was Paul “clean”? How does Ezek. 18:14-20 help us understand Paul’s zeal?
What kind of vow was Paul entering or exiting by cutting his hair? How did first century Judaism deal with Nazirite vows (Numbers 6) taken outside of Israel?
