Acts 21:24

Them take, and purify yourself with them, and pay their expenses, that they may shave their heads: and all may know that those things, of which they were informed concerning you, are nothing; but that you yourself also walk orderly, and keep the law.

All Commentaries on Acts 21:24 Go To Acts 21

John Chrysostom

AD 407

they say not, teachest, but, of superabundance, that you yourself also keepest the law. For of course not this was the matter of chief interest, whether he did not teach others, but, that he did himself observe the law. What then (he might say), if the Gentiles should learn it? I shall injure them. How so? Say they, seeing that even we, the teachers of the Jews, have sent unto them. As touching the Gentiles which believe, we have written and concluded that they observe no such thing, save only that they keep themselves from things offered to idols, and from blood, and from strangled, and from fornication.
