vw@Acts:18:1 @ After these things Paul departed from Athens and came to Corinth.
vw@Acts:18:2 @ And he found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, who had recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla (because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to depart from Rome); and he came to them.
vw@Acts:18:3 @ And, because he was of the same trade, he stayed with them and worked; for by occupation they were tentmakers.
vw@Acts:18:4 @ And he reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath, and persuaded both Jews and Greeks.
vw@Acts:18:5 @ When Silas and Timothy had come from Macedonia, Paul was compelled by the Spirit, and testified to the Jews that Jesus is the Christ.
vw@Acts:18:6 @ But when they opposed him and blasphemed, he shook his garments and said to them, Your blood be upon your own heads; I am clean. From now on I will go to the Gentiles.
vw@Acts:18:7 @ And he departed from there and entered the house of a certain man named Justus, one who revered God, whose house was next door to the synagogue.
vw@Acts:18:8 @ Then Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed on the Lord with all his household. And many of the Corinthians, hearing and believing, were immersed.
vw@Acts:18:9 @ Then the Lord spoke to Paul in the night by a vision, Do not be afraid, but speak, and do not keep silent;
vw@Acts:18:10 @ for I am with you, and no one will attack you to harm you; for I have many people in this city.
vw@Acts:18:11 @ And he continued there a year and six months, teaching the Word of God among them.
vw@Acts:18:12 @ And when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one accord rose up against Paul and brought him to the judgment seat,
vw@Acts:18:13 @ saying, This fellow persuades men to revere God contrary to the Law.
vw@Acts:18:14 @ And when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, If it were a matter of wrongdoing or wicked crimes, O Jews, there would be reason why I should bear with you.
vw@Acts:18:15 @ But if it is a question of words and names and your own law, see to it yourselves; for I do not want to be a judge of such matters.
vw@Acts:18:16 @ And he drove them from the judgment seat.
vw@Acts:18:17 @ Then all the Greeks took Sosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, and beat him before the judgment seat. But Gallio took no notice of these things.
vw@Acts:18:18 @ So Paul still remained a good while. Then he took leave of the brethren and sailed for Syria, and Priscilla and Aquila were with him. He had his hair cut at Cenchrea, for he had a vow.
vw@Acts:18:19 @ And he came to Ephesus, and left them there; but he himself entered the synagogue and reasoned with the Jews.
vw@Acts:18:20 @ When they asked him to stay a longer time with them, he did not consent,
vw@Acts:18:21 @ but took leave of them, saying, I must by all means keep this coming feast in Jerusalem; but I will return again to you, God willing. And he sailed from Ephesus.
vw@Acts:18:22 @ And when he had landed at Caesarea, and gone up and greeted the church, he went down to Antioch.
vw@Acts:18:23 @ After he had spent some time there, he departed and went through the region of Galatia and Phrygia in order, strengthening all the disciples.
vw@Acts:18:24 @ Now a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man and mighty in the Scriptures, came to Ephesus.
vw@Acts:18:25 @ This man had been instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in spirit, he spoke and taught accurately the things of the Lord, though he knew only the immersion of John.
vw@Acts:18:26 @ So he began to speak boldly in the synagogue. When Aquila and Priscilla heard him, they took him aside and explained to him the way of God more accurately.
vw@Acts:18:27 @ And when he was minded to cross to Achaia, the brethren wrote, encouraging the disciples to receive him; and when he arrived, he greatly helped those who had believed through grace;
vw@Acts:18:28 @ for he vigorously refuted the Jews publicly, showing through the Scriptures that Jesus is the Christ.
