Paul reports to James and the elders, purifies himself and goes into the temple

바울이 야고보와 장로들에게 고하고 결례를 행하여 성전에 들어감

Acts 21:17–26: the text says, “When we had come to Jerusalem, the brothers received us gladly. The day following, Paul went in with us to James; and all the elders were present.” When Paul has greeted them, he reports one by one the things which God had worked among the Gentiles through his ministry. They, when they hear it, glorify God. They say to Paul, “You see, brother, how many thousands there are among the Jews of those who have believed, and they are all zealous for the law. They have been informed about you, that you teach all the Jews who are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, telling them not to circumcise their children and not to walk after the customs. What then? The assembly must certainly meet, for they will hear that you have come. Therefore do what we tell you. We have four men who have taken a vow. Take them and purify yourself with them, and pay their expenses for them, that they may shave their heads. Then all will know that there is no truth in the things that they have been informed about you, but that you yourself also walk keeping the law. But concerning the Gentiles who believe, we have written our decision that they should observe no such thing, except that they should keep themselves from food offered to idols, from blood, from strangled things, and from sexual immorality.” Then Paul takes the men, and the next day purifies himself and goes with them into the temple, declaring the fulfillment of the days of purification, until the offering is offered for every one of them.

    17When we had come to Jerusalem, the brothers received us gladly.

    18The day following, Paul went in with us to James; and all the elders were present.

    19When he had greeted them, he reported one by one the things which God had worked among the Gentiles through his ministry.

    20They, when they heard it, glorified God. They said to him, “You see, brother, how many thousands there are among the Jews of those who have believed, and they are all zealous for the law.

    21They have been informed about you, that you teach all the Jews who are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, telling them not to circumcise their children and not to walk after the customs.

    22What then? The assembly must certainly meet, for they will hear that you have come.

    23Therefore do what we tell you. We have four men who have taken a vow.

    24Take them and purify yourself with them, and pay their expenses for them, that they may shave their heads. Then all will know that there is no truth in the things that they have been informed about you, but that you yourself also walk keeping the law.

    25But concerning the Gentiles who believe, we have written our decision that they should observe no such thing, except that they should keep themselves from food offered to idols, from blood, from strangled things, and from sexual immorality.”

    26Then Paul took the men, and the next day purified himself and went with them into the temple, declaring the fulfillment of the days of purification, until the offering was offered for every one of them.
