“And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.”
Therefore let no one pass judgment on you in questions of food and drink, or with regard to a festival or a new moon or a Sabbath — Paul shifts to ethical application: 'let no one judge' (krineō) you. 'Food and drink' (brōsis, potis) and observances (heortē, mēn, sabbaton) were false-teacher demands. These are Jewish regulations now claimed as salvific. 'Festivals and new moons and Sabbaths' were temporary shadow-realities; Christ is substance.
