- Acts 15:2 Paul and Barnabas disagreed with them, arguing vehemently. Finally, the church decided to send Paul and Barnabas to Jerusalem, accompanied by some local believers, to talk to the apostles and elders about this question.
- Acts 18:15 But since it is merely a question of words and names and your Jewish law, take care of it yourselves. I refuse to judge such matters.”
- Acts 23:29 I soon discovered the charge was something regarding their religious law—certainly nothing worthy of imprisonment or death.
- Acts 25:19 Instead, it was something about their religion and a dead man named Jesus, who Paul insists is alive.
- Acts 26:3 for I know you are an expert on all Jewish customs and controversies. Now please listen to me patiently!
