You are being very rude. Remember, Jesus was born into a very ORTHODOX JEWISH family and observed all the Jewish Laws. If fact He was a Rabbi. All His disciples were jews (with maybe one exception)they were observant of the Laws
of Moses
Your understanding of the Bible is skewed by thinking as a 21th century Westerner. It would be very beneficial to you to understand Jewish customs and thought and read the New Testament with that in mind.

I do.
Do you know why a tzitzit no longer has a petil of blue?
I do.
My understanding of Jewish customs and history is broader and deeper than you may imagine. I merely scratched the surface with my first few posts. There is justifiable reasoning behind my opinion on this subject.
I am not being rude. I am being frank, as often Jesus was. Not that I could compare to him, but I am merely following his example on this. Sometimes prophets were also "rude" as in 1 Kings 18: 26-27.
Specifically, in verse 27: At noon Elijah mocked them, “Yell louder. After all, he is a god; he may be deep in thought, or perhaps he stepped out for a moment or has taken a trip. Perhaps he is sleeping and needs to be awakened.”
BTW, "stepped out for a moment" could be interpreted as "he's taking a leak."
I am not trying to be rude. But I am trying to exhibit frankness, which is what I appreciate from those who disagree with me.
