I understand where you're coming from. Please understand where I'm coming from: Two flavors of Pharisee:
One hated Him. one liked Him
One treated him as an enemy, one treated Him as a brother
One sought to take His Live, one sought to save Him (Luke 13.31).
One taught legalism, one taught grace
One is called House Shammai, one is called House Hillel.

To your way of thinking, Slade, do you think that Paul, prior to his conversion, was influenced by Shammai in spite of being a studet of Gamaliel. I mean, Gamaliel was in favor of allowing God to deal with the "problem" of this emerging Faith while the House of Shammai would not honor that reason?
