Why does the gift go to the elders in Jerusalem?

Actes 11:30 (NEG79)

30 Ils le firent parvenir aux anciens par les mains de Barnabas et de Saul.

The gift goes to the elders, most likely because the apostles are not present (see Acts 12:17). The elders may have included some of the Seven (Acts 6:1)1 and they would see to it that the money is used appropriately.
