10:2 Zeal denotes a passionate and commendable commitment to God and his purposes (see Num 25:6-13). But in Paul’s day Jewish zeal was misdirected because it failed to understand that Jesus Christ is the pinnacle of God’s plan. (For Paul’s own misdirected zeal before his conversion to Christ, see Acts 9:1-2; Gal 1:13-14.)
