(Lesson 3669)(01-21-22) Acts 16:1-3
“Then came he to Derbe and Lystra: and, behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timotheus, the son of a certain woman, which was a Jewess, and believed; but his father was a Greek: Which was well reported of by the brethren that were at Lystra and Iconium. Him would Paul have to go forth with him; and took and circumcised him because of the Jews which were in those quarters: for they knew all that his father was a Greek.”
Today’s quote relates how Paul, knowing that Timotheus’ mother was a Jew, and under pressure from the local Jews, relented to have him circumcised before they began their journey to preach the gospel of Christ.~
