Key Cross-Reference: Prior Study

The study "biblical-diet-romans14-timothy" already analyzed: - Romans 14 as idol-market meat dispute (not Levitical food) - 1 Timothy 4:1-5 as anti-ascetic heresy (not anti-dietary-law) - Mark 7 as handwashing tradition dispute - Acts 10 as vision about people, not food - koinos vs akathartos distinction

This pvj-11 study now applies the PVJ series methodology to classify these findings as evidence for Contradiction vs Harmony between Paul and Jesus.
