Not much time right now...will answer the rest later when I get a chance....

How, then, David, do you rectify Matt. 11:30...My yoke is easy and my burden
is light?

Wait a minute, Kay.  I think you are missing the whole point of the Acts 15
council.  Read carefully what Peter said at that council:

Acts 15:10
(10) Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the
disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?

Do you see it?  "... which neither our fathers NOR WE were able to bear."  I
simply cannot see how you can read into this the idea of "spoon-feeding"
being their concern.  From my perspective, these are liberal Jews who came
to realize that the letter of the law is not where it is at.  They embraced
Gentiles, unlike their conservative counterparts, realizing from prophecy
that God had chosen a different way of making a people unto him.
Furthermore, they realized that their own salvation was not through the law,
but through grace.
