Jews and the synagogue

Christian Alexander

I suspect that some of the Jewish disciples of Jesus did not leave the synagogue behind when they joined the early Christian movement. There were most likely many members of the early Christ organizations who continued to follow Jewish customs and rules, such as keeping the Sabbath. Is there any way I can find biblical and extra biblical evidence for this idea?

We know they did not. What was the Council of Jerusalem about? Look at the Jewish-Christian New Testament apocrypha. You have been given many titles regarding this period and related topics. Reread them as necessary to see where they touch on this particular thread of the history - note the footnotes and bibliography. Use the chatbots to find scholars who have worked in the area. I know that attention deficient makes it more difficult but concentrate on tracking down everything you already know about the topic, focus on the concrete topics you want to learn more about, see if those topics can be learned from the resources you already have been given, chatbots, wikipedia, searches online and in Logos ... its more fun to find it yourself than simply being forcefed.
