Paul goes back to Jerusalem with many warnings of the troubles that he will suffer. At his arrival, he visits James, tells the church all the things the Lord has been doing in all the regions and James invites him to goes to the temple to be purified to not be an stumbling block to the believing Jews. As he is in the temple he gets arrested and mistreated so the Romans have to intervene and rescue him. As he is taken he asks permission to speak and he starts a speech in the Hebrew tongue.
