To disprove the rumors against Paul.

(See Acts 21:18–26 — the Jerusalem leaders urged Paul to participate in purification rites and present offerings so Jewish believers would see he still observed the Law and the accusations about him teaching Jews to abandon Moses or bringing Gentiles into the temple would be silenced.)
