    I’m just an atheist that enjoys the subject. None of this makes sense. As you pointed out, this is for Israelites. Jesus didn’t give a shit about gentiles. When the gentile woman asked him to heal her daughter he said he was there for the children of Israel and it would be wrong to take food from children to feed the dogs. 2000 years later and a billion gentiles think he’s sitting on a cloud waiting to hear about their day

      From what I remember she gave a good answer and he healed her daughter. Matt 15:25-28.

      There’s also the Great Commission “[Jesus said] go and make disciples of all nations” Matt 28. Jesus does give a shit about Gentiles but his mission was to Israel; it would be the church’s mission to bring the Good News to the whole world.
