Peter arrives in Jerusalem and begins talking to the Jews there.

|
# had come up to Jerusalem
|

Jerusalem was higher than almost any other place in Israel, so it was normal for Israelites to speak of coming up to Jerusalem and going down from it.

# they who belonged to the circumcision group
|
|
|
|
This is a reference to some of the Jews who believed that every believer must be circumcised. Alternate translation: "some Jewish believers in Jerusalem who wanted all followers of Christ to be circumcised" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]])
