He did. ot let relatively unimportant externals get in the way of witnessing. If he invited a Jew to lunch, he would serve kosher, but a gentile he would not do so That kind of thinkg He is not saying to reach a drunk he would become a drunk, but neither would go amok a rant against alcoholism but present Chrumist and why qwe need him.

1 Cor. 9:20 became as a Jew. Within the limits of God’s word and his Christian conscience, Paul would be as culturally and socially Jewish as necessary when witnessing to Jews (cf. Rom. 9:3; 10:1; 11:14). He was not bound to ceremonies and traditions of Judaism. All legal restraints had been removed, but there was the constraint of love (cf. Rom. 9:3; 10:1; 11:14). For examples of this identification with customs of the Jews, see notes on Acts 16:3; 18:18; 21:20–26.
1 Cor. 9:21 those outside the law. Gentiles. Paul was not suggesting the violating of God’s moral law, but, as he explained, not being lawless toward God, but abiding by the law of Jesus Christ (cf. James 1:25; 2:8; 12).
1 Cor. 9:22 weak. He stooped to make the gospel clear at the lower level of comprehension, which Paul no doubt had done often while dealing with the Corinthians themselves (cf. 2:1–5). all things . . . all means. Within the bounds of God’s word, he would not offend the Jew, Gentile, or those weak in understanding. Not changing Scripture or compromising the truth, he would condescend in ways that could lead to salvation.

Don’t forget to include v 23: “I do it all for the sake of the gospel, that I may share with them in its blessings.”
Paul didn’t change anything about his message. Paul adapted himself to the culture so that the gospel might be heard.

What don’t you understand about it?

Didn’t Paul keep the law with the children of Israel in Jerusalem?
With gentiles who by seed are of the circumcision (natural branches) but through the northern tribes of Israel being divorced from THE MOST HIGH becoming gentiles by nature, they were foreigners and strangers of the promises and covenants, he had to be another way with..
Gentiles not of the seed of Israel who knew not the law and customs of Israel, he was another way with..
He became what he had to based on the customs of the nations he was among, that he may preach to them.. -
