"The Bene Israel ("Sons of Israel") lived primarily in the cities of Bombay (now Mumbai), Pune, Karachi (now in Pakistan), and Ahmadabad. The native language of the Bene Israel was Judeo-Marathi. They arrived in India nearly 2,100 years ago after a shipwreck stranded seven Jewish families from Judea at Navagaon near Alibag, just south of Mumbai."
The above is from This Link!
When the House of Israel was exiled (721 B.C.) there is no Biblical mention of their return.....however the House of Judah returned (from Babylon) to Jerusalem from their exile (125 years later) in about 525 B.C. and is chronicled in the Books of Ezra and Nehemiah.
These two Houses of The Lord God's chosen people constitute all of ancient Israel. This is to whom the original twelve Apostles were sent [Matthew 10:5-6]. After the Assyrian Empire imploded (600 B.C.) the Israelites taken there [II Kings 17:6] were then free to migrate throughout the world......which they did!
And the evidence of Paul evangelizing Jews AND Gentiles is found throughout the New Testament, so it is obvious that the "...to the circumcision..." and "...to the uncircumcised.." were not exclusive domains, but overlapped.
You are correct! Like I said in post #88....Paul was free to go anywhere he wished....to Gentiles or to Israelites. There was one time the Holy Spirit did not allow him to intrude on Peter's mission to the Israelites and you can find that here: [Acts 16:6-7] Now when they had gone throughout Phrygia and the region of Galatia, and were forbidden of the Holy Ghost to preach the word in Asia, After they were come to Mysia, they assayed to go into Bithynia: but the Spirit suffered them not.
Bithynia was in the area to which Peter had been given the responsibility of carrying the word to the Israelites. Let's look at it in scripture.
[1 Peter 1:1-2] Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the strangers scattered throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia, Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied.
Do you see how Peter calls them "Elect according to the foreknowledge of God?" These folks were not Gentiles....as many have thought....they were remnant Israelites left over from the dispersion to Assyria 700 years earlier.
Strangers scattered........The Greek: 3927. parepidemos (par-ep-id'-ay-mos)an alien alongside, i.e. a resident foreigner......1290. diaspora (dee-as-por-ah')dispersion, i.e. (specially and concretely) the (converted) Israelite resident in Gentile countries.
In addition to Paul evangelizing just about anyone he wanted to talk to.....so were his companions allowed: Luke, Barnabas, Timothy, Mark....etc, etc., but the original Twelve were told to not go to the Gentiles or Samaria but to seek out the Tribes of Israel.....all twelve!
Now....if you can find me some scripture that would indicate Peter and the other original eleven spent their time among the Gentiles....I would be willing to read it. When you cast aside your phony traditions and really understand what The Lord is saying in the Holy Scriptures.....things start to make sense.
I'm sorry it took so long in getting back.....been an extremely busy day.
I've already done it. You refuse to believe it. And your whole argument in "proof" is a total logical contradiction. If Paul was the "Apostle to the Uncircumcised", then by your argument, he should have evangelized SOLELY to the Gentiles. He did not, therefore that title was NOT an exclusive domain. By the EXACT SAME LOGIC then, Peter's mission to the Circumcised was also NOT an exclusive domain (and by extension, neither were the other Apostles so limited). You CANNOT "have it both ways" which is what you are trying to do.
