Acts 24:17 · Douay-Rheims
“Now after many years, I came to bring alms to my nation, and offerings, and vows.”
On this verse:
“Now after many--several years absence from Jerusalem--I came to bring alms to my of Macedonia and Greece, which he had taken such pains to gather. This only allusion in the Acts to what is dwelt upon so frequently in his own Epistles (Rom 15:25-26; Co1 16:1-4; Co2 8:1-4), throws a beautiful light on the truth of this History. (See PALEY'S HorÃ&brvbr PaulinÃ&brvbr). and offerings--connected with his Jewish vow: see Act 24:18.”
