Now after many years I came to bring alms to my nation, and offerings.
Note 5 at Ac 24:17: This is the only place in Acts where Paul stated his purpose in going to Jerusalem that last time: it was to bring alms and offerings. In his letter to the Romans, he explained that these alms were from the saints in Macedonia (see note 1 at Ac 16:9) and Achaia (see note 11 at Ac 18:12) for the poor saints at Jerusalem (Ro 15:25-26).
