Disciples’ Literal New Testament
19 And having greeted them, he was describing individually each of the things which God did among the Gentiles through his ministry. 20 And the ones, having heard it, were glorifying God. And they said to him, “You see, brother, how many myriads of the ones having believed there are among the Jews! And they are all zealots[a] for the Law. 21 And they were informed about you— that you are teaching all the Jews[b] throughout the nations apostasy from Moses, saying that they should not be circumcising their children, nor walking in their customs.
