The question arises as to why Jesus did not appear to want to out-reach to people of a non-Jewish background. Elsewhere in Reality Search it has been discussed that the cross of Christianity could well represent the two societies from which Christianity is constructed. It would appear from “the argument” presented in Reality Search that the down beam represents the society based on law (c/f time). The cross beam represents the society based on order (c/f place). In such case it would be natural for Jesus to see his ‘new teaching’ as being based on the established society of law, that is the Jews. In other words he could understand that there could be Jews taking on the extra perspectives of an order-based society. But it may have been difficult to see what Gentiles could base their perspective upon. They did not have the Jewish background of understanding the Cause of the Universe or God as being identified with the Moral Law. The early church faced a dilemma as to what extent Gentile converts should adopt the Jewish law with this understanding. Some early church leaders wanted all converts to be circumcised and observe virtually all Jewish laws. But here in Matthew and later in Acts with the experience of St Paul, it appears that it is mainly faith on the part of Gentiles that allows them to understand and be part of the mission of Jesus. As pointed out in Acts they would still need to observe the essential moral laws and indeed they would be challenged to 'raise the bar' of such observance (c/f Matthew's Section B "Go Beyond the Law.")

In Version Two of Reality Search it is shown that in the Gospel of John he structures his Section B so that the importance of faith for those of a Gentile (c/f Greek/Order/Place background) is hilighted

15:29-39

..Ate all and were satisfied

15:29-39 (Then) removing from there Jesus came by the sea of Galilee and going up into the mountain he sat there. Many crowds approached him, having with them people who were lame, maimed, blind, dumb and with other problems. They put them at his feet and he healed them. But there was also evil called forth - murders, adulteries, fornication, thefts, false witnessing, blaspheming. The crowd marvelled on seeing dumb men speaking, maimed people whole again, the lame walking and the blind seeing. They glorified the God of Israel for it. Jesus then called his disciples forward and said to them "I am filled with compassion for the crowd. because they have now remained with me for three days and have not had anything to eat. I am not willing to dismiss them

without food as they may faint along the way. " His disciples say to him "How could we obtain so many loaves of bread in a desert in order to feed such a large crowd?" Jesus says to them. "How many loaves do you have?" They said "Seven and a few fish." Then having told the crowd to sit on the ground he took the seven loaves and the fish and he broke and gave them to the disciples and they gave them to the crowd. Everyone ate and were satisfied. They took up what was left and filled seven baskets. The people eating numbered four thousand men apart from the women and children. And, having dismissed the crowds he embarked in the boat and came into the borders of Magadan.
