Contextual Overview

15 And after those dayes, we toke vp our burthens, and went vp to Hierusalem. 16 There went with vs also [certayne] of the disciples of Cesarea, & brought with them one Mnason of Cyprus, an olde disciple, with whom we shoulde lodge. 17 And when we were come to Hierusalem, the brethren receaued vs gladly. 18 And on the morowe, Paule went in with vs vnto Iames, and all the elders came together. 19 And when he had saluted them, he tolde by order all thinges that God had wrought among the gentiles by his ministerie. 20 And when they hearde it, they glorified the Lorde, & sayde vnto hym: Thou seest brother, howe many thousande Iewes there are which beleue, & they are all earnest folowers of the lawe. 21 And they are infourmed of thee, that thou teachest all the Iewes whiche are among the Gentiles to forsake Moyses, and sayest that they ought not to circucise their chyldren, neither to walke after the customes. 22 What is it therefore? The multitude must needes come together: For they shall heare that thou art come. 23 Do therfore this that we saye to thee. We haue foure men, which haue a vow on them: 24 Them take, & purifie thy selfe with them, and do coste on them, that they may shaue their heades: And all shall knowe, that those thynges whiche they haue hearde concernyng thee, are nothyng, but that thou thy selfe also walkest and kepest the lawe.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And when we were come to Jerusalem,.... That is, Paul and his companions, attended with the disciples of Caesarea, and Mnason the old disciple with them:

the brethren received us gladly; readily, willingly, and cheerfully; they did not treat them with an air of coldness and indifference, or look shy on them, or show any resentment to them, notwithstanding the various reports which had been brought them, concerning the ministry of the apostle among the Gentiles.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The brethren - Christians.

Received us gladly - They had been long absent. They had been into distant regions, and had encountered many dangers. It was a matter of joy that they had now returned in safety.
