Acts 16:1-4
Timothy Joins Paul and Silas
Now Paul also arrived at aDerbe and at aLystra. And behold, a disciple was there, named bTimothy, the son of a cJewish woman who was a believer, but his father was a Greek, 2 and he was well spoken of by athe brothers who were in bLystra and cIconium. 3 Paul wanted this man to go with him, and he atook him and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in those parts, for they all knew that his father was a Greek. 4 Now while they were passing through the cities, they were delivering athe decrees which had been decided upon by bthe apostles and celders who were in Jerusalem, for them to keep.
