Acts 21:16-22

16Some of the disciples from Caesarea also came with us, taking us to [the house of] Mnason, a man from Cyprus, a disciple of long standing with whom we were to lodge.

17When we arrived in Jerusalem, the brothers and sisters welcomed us gladly.

18On the next day Paul went with us to [see] James, and all the elders of the church were present.

19After greeting them, Paul began to give a detailed account of the things that God had done among the Gentiles through his ministry.

20And when they heard it, they began glorifying and praising God; and they said to him, “You see, brother, how many thousands of believers there are among the Jews, and they are all enthusiastic supporters of the Law [of Moses].

21Now they have been told about you, that you are teaching all the Jews who are living among the Gentiles to turn away from [the Law of] Moses, advising them not to circumcise their children or to live according to the [Mosaic] customs.

22What then should be done? They will certainly hear that you have arrived.
