To the Jew first

Offensive subject line. Grammatically speaking it reads like the unintentional set up to a slur and classic propaganda diatribes.

"For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek....There will be tribulation and distress for every human being who does evil, the Jew first and also the Greek, but glory and honor and peace for everyone who does good, the Jew first and also the Greek."
-- The Apostle Paul, Romans 1:16, 2:9-10

Alex, Thank you for your post, clipping the reference, however it’s probably not the most appropriate in the context of a subject line, because in the modern age, speaking of the Jewish people as objects has an unintended tone.
