Anders:

Thanks for the note, but your rabbi's note playing Paul against Jesus is an old trick that does not work. Acts and other early Christina texts, including Paul's from Galatians makes the point that these ethnic emphases within the new movement did not ultimately end up in opposition to each, although some claiming to be associated with them did try to stoke these fires. So I am afraid note from your orthodox Jewish contact, though rightly recognizing the Jewish context of Jesus,does nto recognize the reform he called for in his ministry and that Paul developed.
