Acts 21:19-21
1599 Geneva Bible
19 [a]And when he had embraced them, he told by order all things, that God had wrought among the Gentiles by his ministration.
20 [b]So when they heard it, they glorified God, and said unto him, Thou seest, brother, how many thousand Jews there are which believe, and they are all zealous of the Law:
21 Now they are informed of thee, that thou teachest all the Jews, which are among the Gentiles, to forsake Moses, and sayest that they ought not to circumcise their sons, neither to live after the customs.
