16:1-5
|
He
came to Derbe and then to Lystra, where a disciple named Timothy
lived, whose mother was a Jewess and a believer, but whose father
was a Greek. The brothers at Lystra and Iconium spoke well of him.
Paul wanted to take him along on the journey, so he circumcised him
because of the Jews who lived in that area, for they all knew that
his father was a Greek.
As
they traveled from town to town, they delivered the decisions
reached by the apostles and elders in Jerusalem for the people to
obey. So the churches were strengthened in the faith and grew daily
in numbers.
