Acts:28:20-31
Seeker Overlay ON
*
For this cause therefore have I called (
5656 )
for you ,
to see (
5629 )
you ,
and to speak with (
5658 )
you :
because that for the hope of Israel I am bound with (
5736 )
this chain .
*
And they said (
5627 )
unto him ,
We neither received (
5662 )
letters out of Judaea concerning thee ,
neither any of the brethren that came (
5637 )
shewed (
5656 )
or spake (
5656 )
any harm of thee .
*
But we desire (
5719 )
to hear (
5658 )
of thee what thou thinkest (
5719 ):
for as concerning this sect ,
we know (
5748 )
that every where it is spoken against (
5743 ).
*
And when they had appointed (
5671 )
him a day ,
there came (
5707 )
many to him into his lodging ;
to whom he expounded (
5710 )
and testified (
5740 )
the kingdom of God ,
persuading (
5723 )
them concerning Jesus ,
both out of the law of Moses ,
and out of the prophets ,
from morning till evening .
*
And some believed (
5712 )
the things which were spoken (
5746 ),
and some believed not (
5707 ).
*
And when they agreed not (
5752 )
among themselves ,
they departed (
5710 ),
after that Paul had spoken (
5631 )
one word ,
Well spake (
5656 )
the Holy Ghost by Esaias the prophet unto our fathers ,
*
Saying (
5723 ),
Go (
5676 )
unto this people ,
and say (
5628 ),
Hearing ye shall hear (
5692 ),
and shall not understand (
5655 );
and seeing (
5723 )
ye shall see (
5692 ),
and not perceive (
5632 ):
*
For the heart of this people is waxed gross (
5681 ),
and their ears are dull of hearing (
5656 ),
and their eyes have they closed (
5656 );
lest they should see (
5632 )
with their eyes ,
and hear (
5661 )
with their ears ,
and understand (
5632 )
with their heart ,
and should be converted (
5661 ),
and I should heal (
5667 )
them .
*
Be it (
5749 )
known therefore unto you ,
that the salvation of God is sent (
5648 )
unto the Gentiles ,
and that they will hear (
5695 )
it .
*
And when he had said (
5631 )
these words ,
the Jews departed (
5627 ),
and had (
5723 )
great reasoning among themselves .
*
And Paul dwelt (
5656 )
two whole years in his own hired house ,
and received (
5711 )
all that came in (
5740 )
unto him ,
*
Preaching (
5723 )
the kingdom of God ,
and teaching (
5723 )
those things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ ,
with all confidence ,
no man forbidding him .
