Luke begins today’s passage by including a brief log of their journeys, including a prophecy from Agabus, who foretells that Paul will be bound by the Jews and handed over to the Gentiles when he reaches Jerusalem. Undeterred, Paul heads to Jerusalem and meets with elders of the church. There is a rumor going around that Paul is maligning Jewish customs amongst those Jews who live amongst Gentiles, when in reality, he’s only teaching that they have no saving power. When enters to the temple, Paul is falsely accused of bringing a Gentile into the temple, and riot ensues. Our reading ends just four verses shy of the entire chapter simply because those verses are better situated to be read as a direct prelude to chapter 22.
