Paul Urged to Make Peace
15 And after those days we1 packed and went up to Jerusalem.
16 Also some of the disciples from Caesarea went with us and brought with them a certain Mnason of Cyprus, an early disciple, with whom we were to lodge.
17 aAnd when we had come to Jerusalem, the brethren received us gladly.
18 On the following day Paul went in with us to aJames, and all the elders were present.
19 When he had greeted them, ahe told in detail those things which God had done among the Gentiles bthrough his ministry.
20 And when they heard it, they glorified the Lord. And they said to him, “You see, brother, how many myriads of Jews there are who have believed, and they are all azealous for the law;
21 but they have been informed about you that you teach all the Jews who are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, saying that they ought not to circumcise their children nor to walk according to the customs.
22 What then? The assembly must certainly meet, for they will hear that you have come.
23 Therefore do what we tell you: We have four men who have taken a vow.
