15:28 These necessary things - All of these were necessary for that time. But the first of them was not necessary long; and the direction concerning it was therefore repealed by the same Spirit, as we read in the former Epistle to the Corinthians.



Hob's comment on 2012-10-18 11:30:14:

The phrasing \"it seemed ...\" (or \"it is seen\") is not Divinely definitive assurance that God (the Holy Spirit; Holy Ghost) really decided the matter about the part of His (Mosaic) Law being reported on by Luke, and here abandoned by \"and...us\" (Mortal \"elders, apostles and brethren\"; \"the multitude\"; or, \"the whole church\") in their Decree, which is needed to set aside His command to Abraham and his Seed \"in their generations\" (Moses\' testimony in Genesis 17).
