Your comment prompted me to do a little historical research. Yes, Alexander was magnanimous to the Jews, but the following history of Judaism in the Hellenistic world was somewhat spotty. However, the Hellenistic half of the Mediterranean did allow the Jews to live outside Judea and establish Jewish communities throughout the Hellenistic world. You can see this in the book of Acts in the Jewish communities the Apostle Paul encountered in Asia Minor and even in Greece. In fact, Paul was originally Saul of Tarsis, which is located in southeastern Asia Minor. So I expanded my historical knowledge a little bit today. Thank you.
Happy to be so able.
Thank you.
