The pivotal moment in Paul's temple speech — 'go, for I will send you far away to the Gentiles' — triggers the crowd's violent reaction (verse 22), revealing that the extension of the gospel to Gentiles was the flashpoint of Jewish-Christian conflict in Jerusalem. The command comes as the climax of a vision in the temple itself, giving the Gentile mission the highest possible authoritative sanction: divine command in the holiest space of Jewish worship. Luke's ironic structuring is deliberate: Paul's commission to the Gentiles is given in the temple, and it is in the temple court that opposition to that commission will be most violently expressed. The verse underscores Acts' consistent thesis that Gentile inclusion was not Paul's innovation but divine mandate given at the center of Israel's worship.
