Like getting free Bible college classes. Keep ‘em coming.
BTW, I had heard that part of the Jew / Gentile friction in Rome after Jews were permitted to return was partly due to Gentile Christians not being forced to leave. I never explored deeper into sources, but have you heard this before?

I have not, though if that's true it would make sense. To my knowledge, Christianity was still considered synonymous with Judaism to the Romans, so I would assume they were expelled from the city as well. However, many of the Gentile converts might have joined Christianity after the ban was lifted, which would certainly be a source of friction.
