And they made a calf in those days, and offered a sacrifice to the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their hands.

and having spoken the word in Perga they went down to Attalia,

Concerning eating things offered to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no other God but one.

But all have not this knowledge; and some with the conscience [unenlightened] even till now eat an idol's [sacrifice] as an idol's sacrifice, and their conscience being weak is defiled.

For if any one sees you who have knowledge reclining in an idol's temple, will not the conscience of him that is weak be emboldened to eat things offered to idols?

What then do I say? that an idol sacrifice is any thing, or that an idol is any thing?

But if any one says to you, This has been offered to an idol, eat not for his sake that informed you, and for conscience' sake.
