 [15 ](/kjv/acts/21/15) And after those days we took up our carriages, and went up to Jerusalem.
 
 [16 ](/kjv/acts/21/16) There went with us also *certain* of the disciples of Cæsarea, and brought with them one Mnason of Cyprus, an old disciple, with whom we should lodge.
 
 [17 ](/kjv/acts/21/17) And when we were come to Jerusalem, the brethren received us gladly.
 
 [18 ](/kjv/acts/21/18) And the *day* following Paul went in with us unto James; and all the elders were present.
