Acts:21:15-26
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And after these days ,
making up our baggage ,
we went up to Jerusalem .
*
And some of the disciples also from Caesarea ,
went along with us ,
and brought us to one Mnason ,
a Cyprian ,
and old disciple ,
with whom we should lodge .
*
And when we were arrived at Jerusalem ,
the brethren received us with pleasure .
*
And the next day Paul entered in with us to James ;
and all the elders were present .
*
And having embraced them ,
he gave them a particular account of those things which God had done among the Gentiles by his ministry .
*
And when they heard it ,
they glorified God ,
and said to him ,
Brother ,
you see how many myriads of believing Jews there are :
and they are all zealous for the law .
*
Now ,
they have been informed of you ,
that you teach all the Jews ,
which are among the Gentiles ,
to apostatize from Moses ,
saying ,
that they ought not to circumcise their children ,
nor to walk according to the customs .
*
What is it then ?
The multitude must ,
by all means ,
come together ;
for they will hear that you are come .
*
Therefore ,
do this that we say to you :
there are with us four men who have a vow upon them ;
*
take them ,
and purify yourself with them ,
and be at charges for them ,
that they may shave their heads :
and all will know that there is nothing in those things which they have heard of you ;
but that you yourself walk regularly ,
keeping the law .
*
As for the believing Gentiles ,
we have written ,
determining that they should observe none of these things ;
except it be to keep themselves from what is offered to idols ,
and from blood ,
and from that which is strangled ,
and from fornication .
*
Then Paul took the men ,
and the next day ,
being purified with them ,
entered into the temple ,
declaring the accomplishment of the days of purification ,
till an offering should be offered for every one of them .
