Romans 11:1 Paul wasn't a Jew?

We learn from Acts 22:28 that, although Paul was a Jew, he was "born" a Roman citizen.

Though a Jew, his father was a Roman citizen. How he obtained this privilege we are not informed. "It might be bought, or won by distinguished service to the state, or acquired in several other ways; at all events, his son was freeborn. It was a valuable privilege, and one that was to prove of great use to Paul, although not in the way in which his father might have been expected to desire him to make use of it."

Thanks to King David who was of the Tribe of Judah all Israelites/ Hebrews became known as Jews.

According to Askmoses.com: The term "Jew" (Heb. Yehudi) can be used differently in different contexts. In its narrowest interpretation it would mean someone from the tribe of Judah (Heb. Yehudah).

In a broader sense it refers to anyone from the kingdom of Judah, which included within it people from the tribe of Benjamin, Levites and Priests as well. A biblical example of this is Moredechai who is called a Jew even though he was from the tribe of Benjamin.

In an even broader sense, especially in contemporary times, the word Jew has come to mean anyone who is part of the "Children of Israel", also known as Israelites, descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, or "people of the book".

This probably has to do with the fact that the northern kingdom of Israel with its Ten Tribes were exiled and lost. The remaining Israelites were all from the kingdom of Judah.

Of course Rabbi Sha'ul (Paul) was a Jew, he was a Pharisee of the Tribe of Benjamin who was taught by Gamaliel, the grandson of Hillel.

"Jew" was originally taken from "Judah," but it came to represent all the tribes.

Paul was a devout Jew....He believed that he was just in killing and persecuting christians until Jesus stopped him and changed his heart.

You are wrong. Read the book of Esther. Mordechai is identified as being of the tribe of Benjamin and is called Mordechai the Jew.

Now, take your anti-semitism and crawl back under your rock.

Yes Paul wasn't a Jew but Saul was.

Paul was a Jew. Israelite and Jews were synonymous. He came from Tarsus. He was a Roman Citizen and studied in Jerusalem where he first came across Christianity when he held the cloaks of the men who stoned Stephen.

His letters demonstrate his deep knowledge of the Hebrew Bible

Israelite means Jew. Paul was Jewish.

His Hebrew name was Saul, but known to us as Paul. He was a Pharisee, trained in the law and Jewish traditions, and a Roman citizen, his trade was tent-making.

Nope, he was probably Roman Pagan. It was it job to kill Christians, he had never even met Jesus.
