@
Now
when they had passed
through
Amphipolis
and
Apollonia
, they
came
to
Thessalonica
,
where
was
a
synagogue
of the
Jews
:
strkjv@Acts:17:2
@
And
Paul
,
as
his manner
was
, went
in
unto
them
,
and
three
sabbath
days
reasoned
with
them
out
of
the
scriptures
,
strkjv@Acts:17:3
@
Opening
and
alleging
,
that
Christ
must
needs
have
suffered
,
and
risen
again
from
the
dead
;
and
that
this
Jesus
,
whom
I
preach
unto
you
,
is
Christ
.
strkjv@Acts:17:4
@
And
some
of
them
believed
,
and
consorted
with
Paul
and
Silas
;
and
of the
devout
Greeks
a
great
multitude
,
and
of the
chief
women
not
a
few
.
strkjv@Acts:17:5
@
But
the
Jews
which believed
not
, moved with
envy
,
took unto
them
certain
lewd
fellows
of the baser
sort
,
and
gathered a
company
, and set
all
the
city
on an
uproar
,
and
assaulted
the
house
of
Jason
, and
sought
to
bring
them
out
to the
people
.
strkjv@Acts:17:6
@
And
when they
found
them
not
, they
drew
Jason
and
certain
brethren
unto
the rulers of the
city
,
crying
,
These
that have
turned
the
world
upside
down
are
come
hither
also
;
strkjv@Acts:17:7
@
Whom
Jason
hath
received
:
and
these
all
do
contrary
to the
decrees
of
Caesar
,
saying
that there
is
another
king
, one
Jesus
.
strkjv@Acts:17:8
@
And
they
troubled
the
people
and
the rulers of the
city
, when they
heard
these
things
.
strkjv@Acts:17:9
@
And
when they had
taken
security
of
Jason
,
and
of the
other
, they
let
them
go
.
strkjv@Acts:17:10
@
And
the
brethren
immediately
sent
away
Paul
and
Silas
by
night
unto
Berea
:
who
coming
thither
went
into
the
synagogue
of the
Jews
.
strkjv@Acts:17:11
@
These
were
more
noble
than those
in
Thessalonica
, in that
they
received
the
word
with
all
readiness of
mind
, and
searched
the
scriptures
daily
,
whether
those
things
were
so
.
strkjv@Acts:17:12
@
Therefore
many
of
them
believed
;
also
of
honourable
women
which
were
Greeks
,
and
of
men
,
not
a
few
.
strkjv@Acts:17:13
@
But
when
the
Jews
of
Thessalonica
had
knowledge
that
the
word
of
God
was
preached
of
Paul
at
Berea
, they
came
thither
also
, and stirred
up
the
people
.
strkjv@Acts:17:14
@
And
then
immediately
the
brethren
sent
away
Paul
to
go
as it
were
to
the
sea
:
but
Silas
and
Timotheus
abode
there
still
.
strkjv@Acts:17:15
@
And
they that
conducted
Paul
brought
him
unto
Athens
:
and
receiving
a
commandment
unto
Silas
and
Timotheus
for
to
come
to
him
with all
speed
, they
departed
.
strkjv@Acts:17:16
@
Now
while
Paul
waited
for
them
at
Athens
,
his
spirit
was
stirred
in
him
, when he
saw
the
city
wholly
given
to
idolatry
.
strkjv@Acts:17:17
@
Therefore
disputed
he
in
the
synagogue
with the
Jews
,
and
with the devout
persons
,
and
in
the
market
daily
with
them that met with
him
.
strkjv@Acts:17:18
@
Then
certain
philosophers
of the
Epicureans
,
and
of the
Stoicks
,
encountered
him
.
And
some
said
,
What
will
this
babbler
say
?
other some, He
seemeth
to
be
a setter
forth
of
strange
gods
:
because
he
preached
unto
them
Jesus
,
and
the
resurrection
.
strkjv@Acts:17:19
@
And
they
took
him
, and brought
him
unto
Areopagus
,
saying
,
May
we
know
what
this
new
doctrine
,
whereof
thou
speakest
, is?
strkjv@Acts:17:20
@
For
thou
bringest
certain
strange
things
to
our
ears
: we
would
know
therefore
what
these
things
mean
.
strkjv@Acts:17:21
@ (
For
all
the
Athenians
and
strangers
which
were
there
spent their
time
in
nothing
else
, but
either
to
tell
,
or
to
hear
some
new
thing
.)
strkjv@Acts:17:22
@
Then
Paul
stood
in
the
midst
of Mars
hill
, and
said
, Ye
men
of
Athens
, I
perceive
that
in
all
things
ye
are too
superstitious
.
strkjv@Acts:17:23
@
For
as I passed
by
,
and
beheld
your
devotions
,
I
found
an
altar
with
this
inscription
, TO THE
UNKNOWN
GOD
.
Whom
therefore
ye
ignorantly
worship
,
him
declare
I
unto
you
.
strkjv@Acts:17:24
@
God
that
made
the
world
and
all
things
therein
, seeing that
he
is
Lord
of
heaven
and
earth
,
dwelleth
not
in
temples
made with
hands
;
strkjv@Acts:17:25
@
Neither
is
worshipped
with
mens
hands
, as though he
needed
any
thing
, seeing
he
giveth
to
all
life
,
and
breath
,
and
all
things
;
strkjv@Acts:17:26
@
And
hath
made
of
one
blood
all
nations
of
men
for to
dwell
on
all
the
face
of the
earth
, and hath
determined
the
times
before
appointed
,
and
the
bounds
of
their
habitation
;
strkjv@Acts:17:27
@ That they should
seek
the
Lord
,
if
haply
they might
feel
after
him
,
and
find
him
,
though
he
be
not
far
from
every
one
of
us
:
strkjv@Acts:17:28
@
For
in
him
we
live
,
and
move
,
and
have our
being
;
as
certain
also
of
your
own
poets
have
said
,
For
we
are
also
his
offspring
.
strkjv@Acts:17:29
@ Forasmuch
then
as we
are
the
offspring
of
God
, we
ought
not
to
think
that the
Godhead
is
like
unto
gold
,
or
silver
,
or
stone
,
graven
by
art
and
mans
device
.
strkjv@Acts:17:30
@
And
the
times
of this
ignorance
God
winked
at
; but
now
commandeth
all
men
every
where
to
repent
:
strkjv@Acts:17:31
@
Because
he hath
appointed
a
day
,
in
the
which
he
will
judge
the
world
in
righteousness
by
that
man
whom
he hath
ordained
; whereof he hath
given
assurance
unto
all
men, in that he hath
raised
him
from
the
dead
.
strkjv@Acts:17:32
@
And
when they
heard
of the
resurrection
of the
dead
,
some
mocked
:
and
others
said
, We will
hear
thee
again
of
this
matter.
strkjv@Acts:17:33
@
So
Paul
departed
from
among
them
.
strkjv@Acts:17:34
@
Howbeit
certain
men
clave
unto
him
, and
believed
:
among
the
which
was
Dionysius
the
Areopagite
,
and
a
woman
named
Damaris
,
and
others
with
them
.
