What happens after Acts 28 regarding Jews and Gentiles?

After Acts 28, the inspired prison letters—Ephesians, Philippians, and Colossians—contain no mention of the Jew or the Old Testament. The focus turns from the Jew to the Gentile, and the doctrine shifts to higher, deeper spiritual truths. Not once is the Jew referenced in these epistles.

Les explains that after Acts 28, when Paul is in prison, he writes Ephesians, Philippians, and Colossians. These prison epistles represent a higher level: Ephesians a higher level of doctrine, Philippians a higher level of reproof, and Colossians a higher level of correction. In them, there is no longer any mention of a Jew or the Old Testament. The statement of Acts 28 marks a turning point: from henceforth, the teaching turns to the Gentile. Not once is the Jew mentioned in these inspired letters, and Les asks what the purpose is.
