Some people say yes despite what the writer of Hebrew\u2019s lengthy discussion about how Yeshua\u2019s death replaced the sacrificial and Levitical systems (Heb chapters 8\u201311; 10:10).<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The rituals that Paul and his fellow Israelites did in Acts 21 actually fits the description of one who is coming out of a Nazirite vow (see Num 6:1\u201321). This was a sin offering and was the only way that the Torah allows one who has taken a Nazirite vow legally to terminate his vow to Elohim. A sacrifice was to be made at the door of the tabernacle (later the temple) by a priest.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today, one can\u2019t technically do a Nazarite vow, since there is no way legally to come out of it unless, of course, one stays a Nazirite until he dies. This is because there is no tabernacle or temple, and there is no Aaronic priest who is available to make the sacrifice. However, in Paul\u2019s day, the priesthood still existed, and the temple still stood.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The sacrifice for coming out of a Nazarite vow is the only example of a disciple of Yeshua performing any sacrifice after Yeshua\u2019s resurrection. Therefore, this sacrifice was a special exception for believers doing a sacrifice, else how could one legally come out of a Nazarite vow?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Why would Paul involve himself in a sin-sacrifice in Acts 21:24 after the death of Yeshua? We mustn\u2019t read too much into the text. It is true that coming out of a Nazarite vow involved a sin offering. However, Acts doesn\u2019t say that Paul was coming out of his own Nazarite vow. What the text says is that he was acting as a wealthy patron\u2014an act of charity\u2014for four individuals who, presumably were unable to afford the costs of paying for the necessary sacrifices to exit a Nazarite vow.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Admittedly, this is a perplexing passage. None of the Bible commentaries I examined on this text could give an adequate explanation as to why Paul would involve himself in this particular ceremony to prove to the Jerusalem mob that he was Torah-observant. The Acts text just doesn\u2019t give us enough background information on the subject. One thing seems certain though. Paul was not making a sin offering for himself. His paying for the sacrifices of the Nazarites seems to have been a public relations gesture to appease those in the Jewish mob who were slandering him. It is a logical overreach and reading into the text to take Paul\u2019s act of charity as him making a doctrinal statement favoring the continued validity of the sacrificial system after the death Yeshua, especially in light of what the other apostolic writers had to say about Yeshua\u2019s fulfilling that system by his death. Certainly, the writer of Hebrews makes this point abundantly clear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Acts 21:25, <em>Observe no such thing. <\/em><\/strong>The phrase \u201cthat they should observe no such thing, except\u201d is a dubious one and is not found in all the oldest and reliable Greek NT manuscripts. I suspect this is an example where the KJV got it wrong. My NKJV has a footnote attached to this phrase saying that it\u2019s not found in the Alexandrian family of NT texts. Furthermore, it\u2019s not in the Aramaic Peshitta. Therefore, I suspect that this phrase was a scribal addition and was not in the original autographs, especially since it is inconsistent with the rest of the Scriptures including the writings of Paul.<br \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"evernoteSiteMemory\"><a href=\"javascript:\" onclick=\"Evernote.doClip({title: 'Was Paul still \\&quot;under\\&quot; the sacrificial system?',url: 'https:\/\/hoshanarabbah.org\/blog\/2020\/05\/05\/was-paul-still-under-the-sacrificial-system\/',contentID: 'post-16904',suggestTags: 'Paul,Sacrificial System',providerName: 'Hoshana Rabbah Blog',styling: 'text' });return false\" class=\"evernoteSiteMemoryLink\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.evernote.com\/article-clipper.png\" \nclass=\"evernoteSiteMemoryButton\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evernoteSiteMemoryClear\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Acts 21:23\u201327, Vow.
