The Meeting in Jerusalem

15 Then some people came to Antioch from Judea and began teaching the Gentile believers [^Lbrothers (and sisters)]: “You cannot be saved if you are not circumcised ·as Moses taught us [^Laccording to the custom of Moses; compare Gen. 17:9–14].” ² Paul and Barnabas ·were against this teaching and argued [^Lhad no small argument and debate] with them about it. So the church ·decided to send [commissioned; appointed] Paul, Barnabas, and some others to Jerusalem where they could talk more about this disagreement with the apostles and elders.
