15aSome men came down from Judea and began teaching bthe brothers, “Unless you are ccircumcised according to dthe custom of Moses, you cannot be saved.” 2And when Paul and Barnabas had not a little dissension and adebate with them, bthe brothers determined that Paul and Barnabas and some others of them should go up to Jerusalem to the capostles and elders concerning this issue. 3Therefore, being asent on their way by the church, they were passing through both bPhoenicia and Samaria, crecounting in detail the conversion of the Gentiles, and were bringing great joy to all dthe brothers. 4When they arrived at Jerusalem, they were received by the church and athe apostles and the elders, and they breported all that God had done with them. 5But some of athe sect of the bPharisees who had believed stood up, saying, “It is necessary to ccircumcise them and to command them to keep the Law of Moses.”
