a:
Acts 15:2 When therefore Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and disputation with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas, and certain other of them, should go up to Jerusalem unto the apostles and elders about this question.
Galatians 1:18 Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and abode with him fifteen days.
b:
Acts 4:36 And Joses, who by the apostles was surnamed Barnabas, (which is, being interpreted, The son of consolation,) a Levite, and of the country of Cyprus,
c:
2 Corinthians 2:13 I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother: but taking my leave of them, I went from thence into Macedonia.
Galatians 2:3 But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised:
either fourteen years after the three years before mentioned, and the fifteen days; or fourteen years after the conversion of Paul, or fourteen years after the death of Christ. This journey seeming to be that mentioned Act 15:2, it seems rather to be understood of fourteen years after the death of Christ.
motions to Jerusalem are usually in Scripture called ascendings or goings up; either because of the mountains round about it, or in respect of the famousness of the place: see Act 15:2 21:4. The occasion of this journey we have, Act 15:1,2. It was to advise with the apostles and elders, about the necessity of circumcision; some that came from Judea having taught the disciples at Antioch, that except they were circumcised they could not be saved.
Barnabas was chosen to go with Paul, Act 15:2, and some others, whom Luke nameth not, but it is plain by this text Titus was one.
