[Invincibly Ignorant]

That's double talk my friend. Jews weren't allowed to speak or eat with Gentiles, let alone learn about God. Except for Septuagint, practially all the books were written in Hebrew, and known only by select few. So, how were the Children of, God other than Hebrews, learn about Him?

That's bullcrap and you know it. Look at Kings David and Solomon and their dealings with the nations. A whole bunch of non-jews built the Temple for crying out loud. All thru the Hebrew scriptures there are interactions with gentiles. Your anti-semetic attitude gets quite annoying.

"Before certain men came from James, he used to eat with the Gentiles. But when they arrived, he began to draw back and separate himself from the Gentiles because he was afraid of those who belonged to the circumcision group. The other Jews joined him in his hypocrisy, so that by their hypocrisy even Barnabas was led astray." [Galatians 2:12-13]

I have not seen you in a while . Does this mean you are now Jewish?

I have forgotten what you were the last time we talked.

Now to the question. There were lots of men that built the Microsoft headquarters that did not become computer engineers in the process.

God was not confused. He knew who HIS people were in the Old Testament and he knew who he was talking to .

Much of the "interaction" was the slaying of the pagan nations at Gods command, then there was the avoidance of the Samaritans by going miles out of their way to avoid them

Remember Peter did not want to go to the house of Cornelius, as he was unclean . Remember the reaction of the disciples to that visit?

Act 11:2 And when Peter was come up to Jerusalem, they that were of the circumcision contended with him,

Act 11:3 Saying, Thou wentest in to men uncircumcised, and didst eat with them.

God used that occasion to show the disciples that there was no more clean or unclean
