The translators have been used for confusion of those considered Strangers or from other lands by calling them other than what they were. The people from other Nations, strangers because they were not congregating with them not because they were strange.
Gentiles means Nations. Every nation in the world that desires to follow the teachings of YHWH through Moses in the beginning and the example and teachings of Yahshua in the NT. Has never changed is the same way one with a written Torah and another one with the Living Torah which is both Echad (one). If we repent and turn to His ways and His truth we will find (Yeshua) Salvation which is Life. So the ONE instruction is for All the Nations that have a desire to Love Salvation (Yeshua) and show it by doing what YHWH commanded Israel to do which was to keep His commandments, statutes and ordinances.
Numbers 15:15 For the assembly, there shall be one statute for you and for the stranger who sojourns with you, a statute forever throughout your generations. You and the sojourner shall be alike before the Lord. 16 One law and one rule shall be for you and for the stranger!!
Now Jews were those of Judah, Benjamin and part of Levi and all other Nations that had been added to them. But because Jews had been keeping 2 Laws one written and one oral. When Yeshua and the Apostles spoke about the Jews they spoke to those keeping the Oral Torah. Pharisees were of 4 types and that did not include the Sadducee. Plus there were unbelieving Jews that were evil just like today there are many secular Jews.
Acts 14:2
But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles, and made their minds evil affected against the brethren.
John 7:35
Then said the Jews among themselves, Whither will he go, that we shall not find him? will he go unto the dispersed among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles?
For the disciples it was new to be able to go to the Nations to evangelize. They were surprised but today we know the way Yahshua came to the nations through the Jews. The real Yahshua is being born again in us right now with every birth pang. I say real because those Torah keepers guarding the truth are opening their eyes and ears now in this time through the work of the Ruach HaKodesh. The seeds that had been planted among the tares are showing their fruit making them different from the rest of the field. HallelluY
