The Apostles' Doctrine

Notice when the Apostles preached after Pentecost, they didn't just preach about how to become better Law-keepers.

They didn't even major on merely repeating some of the ethical things Jesus had at one time said about the Jews at that time keeping the Law.

Rather the Apostles' message revolved around the reality of the resurrection and the purpose of the cross of Jesus!

Paul said he resolved not to know anything among the churches except Jesus Christ and Him crucified.

Some of the details in the Synoptic Gospels were part of a still-unfolding plot - a plot which didn't become entirely clear to the disciples until after Christ's resurrection.
