Acts 16:1-4

1Paul went on to Derbe and Lystra, where there was a disciple named Timothy, the son of a believing Jewish woman, but his father was a Greek.

2The brothers and sisters at Lystra and Iconium spoke highly of him.

3Paul wanted Timothy to go with him; so he took him and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in those places, since they all knew that his father was a Greek.

4As they traveled through the towns, they delivered the decisions reached by the apostles and elders at Jerusalem for the people to observe.
