The question of circumcision: Paul, Barnabas and some others go up to Jerusalem

할례 문제로 바울과 바나바와 몇 사람을 예루살렘에 보냄

Acts 15:1–5: some men come down from Judea and teach the brothers, “Unless you are circumcised after the custom of Moses, you can’t be saved.” When Paul and Barnabas have no small discord and discussion with them, Paul, Barnabas, and some others are appointed to go up to Jerusalem to the apostles and elders about this question. Being sent on their way by the assembly, they pass through both Phoenicia and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the Gentiles, and cause great joy to all the brothers. When they have come to Jerusalem, they are received by the assembly and the apostles and the elders, and they report everything that God had done with them. But some of the sect of the Pharisees who believed rise up, saying, “It is necessary to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses.”
