Acts 21:16-22

16Some of the disciples from Caesarea came along with us too, and brought us to the house of Mnason of Cyprus, a disciple from the earliest times, with whom we were to stay.

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

18The next day Paul went in with us to see James, and all the elders were there.

19When Paul had greeted them, he began to explain in detail what God had done among the Gentiles through his ministry.

20When they heard this, they praised God. Then they said to him, “You see, brother, how many thousands of Jews there are who have believed, and they are all ardent observers of the law.

21They have been informed about you – that you teach all the Jews now living among the Gentiles to abandon Moses, telling them not to circumcise their children or live according to our customs.

22What then should we do? They will no doubt hear that you have come.
