What's the Difference Between Acts 17 and Acts 18?
I think there are everything that you and Alistair have said about Acts 17, Acts 18, the differences between how the gospel is received. All of that seems right to me. This is why I think it can be reconciled with the broader swath of Paul's corpus. It's so easy and has been so easy throughout church history for this passage to be used in ways that do fuel a deeply pernicious and wicked anti-Semitism. And other than just it distresses me like I kind of wish he'd been a little bit more careful in how he framed his opposition to those particular Jews.
