Book 44 : ACTS - Chapter 018
018:001
And found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately
come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla; (because that
Claudius had commanded all Jews to depart from Rome:) and came
unto them
018:002
And because he was of the same craft, he abode with them, and
wrought: for by their occupation they were tentmakers
018:003
And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded
the Jews and the Greeks
018:004
And when Silas and Timotheus were come from Macedonia, Paul
was pressed in the spirit, and testified to the Jews that
Jesus was Christ
018:005
And when they opposed themselves, and blasphemed, he shook his
raiment, and said unto them, Your blood be upon your own
heads; I am clean; from henceforth I will go unto the
Gentiles
018:006
And he departed thence, and entered into a certain man's
house, named Justus, one that worshipped God, whose house
joined hard to the synagogue
018:007
And Crispus, the chief ruler of the synagogue, believed on the
Lord with all his house; and many of the Corinthians hearing
believed, and were baptized
018:008
Then spake the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, Be not
afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace
018:009
For I am with thee, and no man shall set on thee to hurt thee:
for I have much people in this city
018:010
And he continued there a year and six months, teaching the
word of God among them
018:011
And when Gallio was the deputy of Achaia, the Jews made
insurrection with one accord against Paul, and brought him to
the judgment seat
018:012
Saying, This fellow persuadeth men to worship God contrary to
the law
018:013
And when Paul was now about to open his mouth, Gallio said
unto the Jews, If it were a matter of wrong or wicked
lewdness, O ye Jews, reason would that I should bear with you
018:014
But if it be a question of words and names, and of your law,
look ye to it; for I will be no judge of such matters
018:015
And he drave them from the judgment seat
018:016
Then all the Greeks took Sosthenes, the chief ruler of the
synagogue, and beat him before the judgment seat. And Gallio
cared for none of those things
018:017
And Paul after this tarried there yet a good while, and then
took his leave of the brethren, and sailed thence into Syria,
and with him Priscilla and Aquila; having shorn his head in
Cenchrea: for he had a vow
018:018
And he came to Ephesus, and left them there: but he himself
entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews
018:019
When they desired him to tarry longer time with them, he
consented not
018:020
But bade them farewell, saying, I must by all means keep this
feast that cometh in Jerusalem: but I will return again unto
you, if God will. And he sailed from Ephesus
018:021
And when he had landed at Caesarea, and gone up, and saluted
the church, he went down to Antioch
018:022
And after he had spent some time there, he departed, and went
over all the country of Galatia and Phrygia in order,
strengthening all the disciples
018:023
And a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an
eloquent man, and mighty in the scriptures, came to Ephesus
018:024
This man was instructed in the way of the Lord; and being
fervent in the spirit, he spake and taught diligently the
things of the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John
018:025
And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue: whom when
Aquila and Priscilla had heard, they took him unto them, and
expounded unto him the way of God more perfectly
018:026
And when he was disposed to pass into Achaia, the brethren
wrote, exhorting the disciples to receive him: who, when he
was come, helped them much which had believed through grace
018:027
For he mightily convinced the Jews, and that publickly,
shewing by the scriptures that Jesus was Christ
