Yes that has answered my questions. But one last question, this verse (5:5) says that we can eat the people of the book's food and they can eat ours. But Jews don't believe in eating Halal, they only eat Kosher (if they actually care about their religion). So why does this Verse make a generalization that they can eat our food when they can't (this doesn't apply to Christians, only Jews)?
The Muslim is supposed to pronounce Allah Almighty's Holy Name on everything he/she eats, and before anything they do. So that suffices pronouncing Allah Almighty's Name.
Again, Christians existed during the days these Noble Verses came down. They never pronounced Allah Almighty's Holy Name on their food. The fact that the Glorious Quran gave us permissions to eat from their food (except what Islam prohibits, like pork) shows that the issue of prohibition and permission was addressed.
Certainly Islam considers many of them as polytheist trinitarian pagans. But their food is Halal for us, and Muslim men are also allowed to marry from their women. This is not the case with none-people-of-the-Book pagan food and women.
