Acts of the Apostles 21:26

In context

24Take them with you, go through the rite of purification with them and pay their expenses so that they can have their heads shaved. Then everyone will know that there is nothing in the reports about you, and that you yourself live in observance of the law. 25As for the Gentiles who have believed, we sent them our decision in writing: that they should keep themselves from what has been sacrificed to idols, from blood, from the meat of strangled animals, and from sexual immorality.” 26So the next day Paul took the men, purified himself with them and went into the temple, giving notice of when the days of purification would end and the offering be made for each of them. 27When the seven days were almost over, the Jews from Asia saw him in the temple, stirred up the whole crowd and seized him, 28shouting, “Men of Israel, help! This is the man who teaches everyone everywhere against our people, against the law and against this place. And now he has even brought Greeks into the temple and defiled this holy place.”
