Exodus 12:49 does not teach that all Gentiles were under the Mosaic Law—it refers to resident aliens within Israel
Response to a Hebrew Roots proof text about Gentiles and the Law
Some in the Hebrew Roots movement cite Exodus 12:49 ("one law for the native and for the stranger who sojourns among you") to argue the Law applied universally. Winger argues this simply means foreigners living within Israel's borders were subject to Israeli law—it says nothing about Gentiles outside of Israel being required to keep the Mosaic Law.
