18. The next day Paul went with us to visit James. All the spiritual leaders were present.
19. After greeting them, Paul related everything God had done through his work with non-Jewish people.
20. When the spiritual leaders heard about everything, they praised God. They said to Paul, “You see, brother, how many thousands of Jews are now believers, and all of them are deeply committed to Moses’ Teachings.
21. But they have been told that you teach all the Jews living among non-Jewish people to abandon Moses. They claim that you tell them not to circumcise their children or follow Jewish customs.
22. What should we do about this? They will certainly hear that you’re in town.
