Would not someone who follows Jewish law. and considers themselves of the Jewish faith be a Jew?
Also, anyone from Greece is Greek.
I have a problem with inconsistency, and I find that much of the bible is full of it. I grew up in a Baptist church, taught Sunday school, did Bible study, went on missions trips, ran the full gambit. So I hope you are not taking anything I say personally... I am just saying that there are Jews and Greeks... regardless of what someone wrote in the book.
I also have trouble believing that the book is divinely inspired... but that I suppose is another discussion.

You said a TRUE JEW...a true Jew is someone that ACTUALLY does God's will, not what they think is Gods will. Thus, according to scripture, not the "OPINION OF MAN", the true Jewish nation of Israel is now only "spiritual" as it has been raised from the dead with Christ Jesus now sitting on the throne of David. The "posers" in the middle east can call themselves what they want, but this still does not make them.....national Israel of the Scriptures. BD
