{For Moses} (M(9375)s(8873) gar). A reason why these four

Hence the Gentile Christians would be giving constant offence to
neglect them. The only point where modern Christian sentiment
would object would be about "things strangled" and "blood" in the
sense of any blood left in the animals, though most Christians
probably agree with the feeling of James in objecting to blood in
the food. If "blood" is taken to be "murder," that difficulty
vanishes. Moses will suffer no loss for these Gentile Christians
are not adherents of Judaism.
