Ye shall divide

And to the strangers

And the foreigners who join themselves to the Lord
minister to Him, love the name of Yahweh
and become His servants,
all who keep the Sabbath without desecrating it
and who hold firmly to My covenant—

There were Jews living in Jerusalem, devout men from every nation under heaven.

When they heard this they became silent. Then they glorified God, saying, “So God has granted repentance resulting in life even to the Gentiles!”

They shall have

There is no Jew or Greek, slave or free, male or female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

In Christ there is not Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, slave and free; but Christ is all and in all.
