‏ Acts 21:22

 What is it therefore? ( Τ ουν εστιν? ). See this form of question by Paul (1Co 14:15, 26). What is to be done about it? Clearly James and the elders do not believe these misrepresentations of Paul's teaching, but many do.

 They will certainly hear ( παντως ακουσοντα ).  Παντως is old adverb, by all means, altogether, wholly, certainly as here and 28:4; Lu 4:23; 1Co 9:10. This future middle of  ακουω is the usual form instead of  ακουσω. There was no way to conceal Paul's arrival nor was it wise to do so. B C and several cursives omit  δε πληθος συνελθειν (The multitude must needs come together).
