After he had given permission, Paul stood on the steps and motioned with his hand to the people. When there was a great hush, he addressed them in the Hebrew language:
Motioning to them with his hand to be silent, he explained to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison.“ Report these things to James and the brothers,” he said. Then he departed and went to a different place.
When he did come out, he could not speak to them. Then they realized that he had seen a vision in the sanctuary. He kept making signs to them and remained speechless.
