Quit repeating YOUR LIES. Paul did NOT say that. The Bible is CRYSTAL CLEAR.
ARE a shadow of THINGS TO COME.
It does NOT say "WERE a shadow of THINGS THAT CAME".
Confusion and lies is your MO.
As with Heb 8:5
4Now if He were on earth, He would not be a priest, since there are already priests who offer gifts according to the law. 5
They serve at a copy and shadow of the heavenly sanctuary. That is why Moses was warned when he was about to build the tabernacle, “See to it that you make everything according to the pattern shown you on the mountain.” 6Now, however, Jesus has received a much more excellent ministry,
And
Heb 10:1
The Law is only a shadow of the good things to come, not the realities themselves. It can never, by the same sacrifices offered year after year, make perfect those who draw near to worship.
So what was Paul saying in Colossians 2:16-17?
“Therefore, if all the translators were simply consistent with themselves, they would have translated Colossians 2:16-17 to state:
16 Therefore let NO MAN JUDGE YOU in eating and drinking or in respect of a festival or of an observance of the new moon or of a sabbath; 17 for those things are a shadow of the things to come, BUT THE BODY OF CHRIST.“

why would gentiles keep new moons since they had the Julian calendar...
unless they wanted to because of what was done for them?
