Acts 15 — Context

And all the people were quiet while Barnabas and Paul gave an account of the signs and wonders which God had done among the Gentiles by them.

And when they had come to an end, James, answering, said, My brothers, give ear to me:

Symeon has given an account of how God was first pleased to take from among the Gentiles a people for himself.

And this is in agreement with the words of the prophets, as it is said,

After these things I will come back, and will put up the tent of David which has been broken down, building up again its broken parts and making it complete:

So that the rest of men may make search for the Lord, and all the Gentiles on whom my name is named,

Says the Lord, who has made these things clear from the earliest times.
