how many thousands of Jews
there are which believe; and
they are all jealous of the law.
And they are informed of thee.
that thou teachest all the Jews
which are among the Gentiies to
forsake Moses, saying that they
ought rot to circumcise their
children neither to walk after
the customs. What IS, 1T there

c9me together; for they will
hear. that thou, art come, Do
therefore this that we say to
thee; We have :our men which

':Gentiies which believe, We have
written and concluded that they
iobserve no such thing, save cnly
that they keep themselves from
things offered to idols and from
blood, and from strangled, and
from focnica.ion. Then Paul
took the men, and the next day
purifying himself with them en-
tered into The temple, to signify
the accomplishment of the days
