rwbs@Acts:2:23 @ Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain:

rwbs@Acts:2:24 @ Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be held by it.

rwbs@Acts:2:26 @ Therefore did my heart rejoice, and my tongue was glad; moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope:

rwbs@Acts:2:31 @ He seeing this before spoke of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither did his flesh see corruption.

rwbs@Acts:2:32 @ This Jesus hath God raised up, of which we all are witnesses.

rwbs@Acts:2:33 @ Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear.

rwbs@Acts:2:35 @ Until I make thy foes thy footstool.

rwbs@Acts:2:36 @ Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.

rwbs@Acts:2:38 @ Then Peter said to them, Repent ye, and each one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

rwbs@Acts:2:39 @ For the promise is to you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, as many as the Lord our God shall call.

rwbs@Acts:2:40 @ And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this perverse generation.

rwbs@Acts:2:41 @ Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added about three thousand souls.

rwbs@Acts:2:42 @ And they continued steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.

rwbs@Acts:2:43 @ And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles.

rwbs@Acts:2:44 @ And all that believed were together, and had all things common;

rwbs@Acts:2:45 @ And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all, as every man had need.

rwbs@Acts:2:46 @ And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, ate their food with gladness and singleness of heart, (note:)from…: or, at home(:note)

rwbs@Acts:2:47 @ Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.

rwbs@Acts:3:1 @ Now Peter and John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth.

rwbs@Acts:3:2 @ And a certain man lame from his mother’s womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms of them that entered into the temple;

rwbs@Acts:3:3 @ Who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple asked alms.

rwbs@Acts:3:4 @ And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us.

rwbs@Acts:3:5 @ And he gave heed to them, expecting to receive something from them.

rwbs@Acts:3:6 @ Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have I give thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.

rwbs@Acts:3:7 @ And he took him by the right hand, and lifted up: and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength.

rwbs@Acts:3:8 @ And he leaping up stood, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.

rwbs@Acts:3:9 @ And all the people saw him walking and praising God:

rwbs@Acts:3:10 @ And they knew that it was he who sat for alms at the Beautiful gate of the temple: and they were filled with wonder and amazement at that which had happened to him.

rwbs@Acts:3:11 @ And as the lame man who was healed held Peter and John, all the people ran together to them in the porch that is called Solomon’s, greatly wondering.

rwbs@Acts:3:12 @ And when Peter saw, he answered to the people, Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this? or why look ye so earnestly on us, as though by our own power or holiness we had made this man to walk?

rwbs@Acts:3:13 @ The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Son Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let go.

rwbs@Acts:3:14 @ But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted to you;

rwbs@Acts:3:15 @ And killed the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; to which we are witnesses. (note:)Prince: or, Author(:note)

rwbs@Acts:3:16 @ And his name through faith in his name hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know: yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.

rwbs@Acts:3:17 @ And now, brethren, I know that through ignorance ye did, as also your rulers.

rwbs@Acts:3:18 @ But those things, which God before had shown by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he hath so fulfilled.

rwbs@Acts:3:19 @ Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;

rwbs@Acts:3:20 @ And he shall send Jesus Christ, who before was preached to you:

rwbs@Acts:3:21 @ Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.

rwbs@Acts:3:22 @ For Moses truly said to the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up to you of your brethren, like me; him shall ye hear in all things whatever he shall say to you.

rwbs@Acts:3:23 @ And it shall come to pass, every soul, who will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.

rwbs@Acts:3:24 @ Yea, and all the prophets also from Samuel and those that follow, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold these days.

rwbs@Acts:3:25 @ Ye are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying to Abraham, And in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed.

rwbs@Acts:3:26 @ To you first God, having raised up his Son Jesus, sent him to bless you, in turning away each one of you from his iniquities.

rwbs@Acts:4:1 @ And as they were speaking to the people, the priests, and the captain of the temple, and the Sadducees, came upon them, (note:)captain: or, ruler(:note)

rwbs@Acts:4:2 @ Being grieved that they taught the people, and preached through Jesus the resurrection from the dead.

rwbs@Acts:4:3 @ And they laid hands on them, and put in custody to the next day: for it was now evening.

rwbs@Acts:4:4 @ But many of them who heard the word believed; and the number of the men was about five thousand.

rwbs@Acts:4:5 @ And it came to pass on the next day, that their rulers, and elders, and scribes,

rwbs@Acts:4:6 @ And Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the high priest, were gathered together at Jerusalem.

rwbs@Acts:4:7 @ And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what power, or by what name, have ye done this?

rwbs@Acts:4:8 @ Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,

rwbs@Acts:4:9 @ If we this day are examined concerning the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he is made well;

rwbs@Acts:4:10 @ Be it known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, by him doth this man stand here before you in good health.

rwbs@Acts:4:11 @ This is the stone which was rejected by you builders, which is become the head of the corner.

rwbs@Acts:4:12 @ Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is no other name under heaven given among men, by which we must be saved.

rwbs@Acts:4:13 @ Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.

rwbs@Acts:4:14 @ And beholding the man who was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.

rwbs@Acts:4:15 @ But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred among themselves,

rwbs@Acts:4:16 @ Saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed a notable miracle hath been done by them apparent to all them that dwell in Jerusalem; and we cannot deny.

rwbs@Acts:4:17 @ But that it may spread no further among the people, let us strictly threaten them, that they speak henceforth to no man in this name.

rwbs@Acts:4:18 @ And they called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.

rwbs@Acts:4:19 @ But Peter and John answered and said to them, Whether it is right in the sight of God to hearken to you rather than to God, judge ye.

rwbs@Acts:4:20 @ For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard.

rwbs@Acts:4:21 @ So when they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding nothing how they might punish them, because of the people: for all glorified God for that which was done.

rwbs@Acts:4:22 @ For the man was over forty years old, on whom this miracle of healing was performed.

rwbs@Acts:4:23 @ And being released, they went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said to them.

rwbs@Acts:4:24 @ And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou God, who hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that is in them:

rwbs@Acts:4:25 @ Who by the mouth of thy servant David hast said, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things?

rwbs@Acts:4:26 @ The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ.

rwbs@Acts:4:27 @ For in truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were gathered together,

rwbs@Acts:4:28 @ To do whatever thy hand and thy counsel determined before to be done.

rwbs@Acts:4:29 @ And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant to thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word,

rwbs@Acts:4:30 @ By stretching forth thy hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus.

rwbs@Acts:4:31 @ And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the word of God with boldness.

rwbs@Acts:4:32 @ And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any that any of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.

rwbs@Acts:4:33 @ And with great power the apostles gave witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.

rwbs@Acts:4:34 @ Neither was there any among them that was needy: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold,

rwbs@Acts:4:35 @ And laid down at the apostles’ feet: and distribution was made to every man according as he had need.

rwbs@Acts:4:36 @ And Joses, who by the apostles was surnamed Barnabas, (which is, being interpreted, The son of consolation,) a Levite, of the country of Cyprus,

rwbs@Acts:4:37 @ Having land, sold, and brought the money, and laid at the apostles’ feet.

rwbs@Acts:5:1 @ But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession,

rwbs@Acts:5:2 @ And kept back of the price, his wife also knowing, and brought a certain part, and laid at the apostles’ feet.

rwbs@Acts:5:3 @ But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thy heart to lie to the Holy Spirit, and to keep back of the price of the land? (note:)to lie to: or, to deceive(:note)

rwbs@Acts:5:4 @ While it remained, was it not thy own? and after it was sold, was it not in thy own power? why hast thou conceived this thing in thy heart? thou hast not lied to men, but to God.

rwbs@Acts:5:5 @ And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and died: and great fear came on all them that heard these things.

rwbs@Acts:5:6 @ And the young men arose, wrapped him up, and carried out, and buried.

rwbs@Acts:5:7 @ And it was about the space of three hours after, when his wife, not knowing what was done, came in.

rwbs@Acts:5:8 @ And Peter answered to her, Tell me whether ye sold the land for so much? And she said, Yea, for so much.

rwbs@Acts:5:9 @ Then Peter said to her, How is it that ye have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? behold, the feet of them who have buried thy husband at the door, and shall carry thee out.

rwbs@Acts:5:10 @ Then she fell down immediately at his feet, and died: and the young men came in, and found her dead, and, carrying forth, buried by her husband.

rwbs@Acts:5:11 @ And great fear came upon all the church, and upon as many as heard these things.

rwbs@Acts:5:12 @ And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people; (and they were all with one accord in Solomon’s porch.

rwbs@Acts:5:13 @ And of the rest dared no man join himself to them: but the people magnified them.

rwbs@Acts:5:14 @ And believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women.)

rwbs@Acts:5:15 @ So that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them. (note:)into…: or, in every street(:note)

rwbs@Acts:5:16 @ There came also a multitude of the surrounding cities to Jerusalem, bringing sick persons, and them who were afflicted with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one.

rwbs@Acts:5:17 @ Then the high priest rose up, and all they that were with him, (which is the sect of the Sadducees,) and were filled with indignation, (note:)indignation: or, envy(:note)

rwbs@Acts:5:18 @ And laid their hands on the apostles, and put them in the common prison.

rwbs@Acts:5:19 @ But the angel of the Lord by night opened the prison doors, and brought them forth, and said,

rwbs@Acts:5:20 @ Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life.

rwbs@Acts:5:21 @ And when they heard, they entered into the temple early in the morning, and taught. But the high priest came, and they that were with him, and called the council together, and all the elders of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought.

rwbs@Acts:5:22 @ But when the officers came, and found them not in the prison, they returned, and told,

rwbs@Acts:5:23 @ Saying, The prison truly we found shut with all safety, and the keepers standing outside before the doors: but when we had opened, we found no man within.

rwbs@Acts:5:24 @ Now when the high priest and the captain of the temple and the chief priests heard these things, they were greatly perplexed about them as to what would come of this.

rwbs@Acts:5:25 @ Then came one and told them, saying, Behold, the men whom ye put in prison are standing in the temple, and teaching the people.

rwbs@Acts:5:26 @ Then went the captain with the officers, and brought them without violence: for they feared the people, lest they should have been stoned.

rwbs@Acts:5:27 @ And when they had brought them, they set before the council: and the high priest asked them,

rwbs@Acts:5:28 @ Saying, Did we not strictly command you that ye should not teach in this name? and, behold, ye have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and intend to bring this man’s blood upon us.

rwbs@Acts:5:29 @ Then Peter and the apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.

rwbs@Acts:5:30 @ The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew and hanged on a tree.

rwbs@Acts:5:31 @ Him hath God exalted with his right hand a Prince and a Saviour, to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.

rwbs@Acts:5:32 @ And we are his witnesses of these things; and also the Holy Spirit, whom God hath given to them that obey him.

rwbs@Acts:5:33 @ When they heard, they were cut, and took counsel to slay them.

rwbs@Acts:5:34 @ Then stood up one in the council, a Pharisee, named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law, had in reputation among all the people, and commanded to put the apostles forth a little time;

rwbs@Acts:5:35 @ And said to them, Ye men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what ye intend to do concerning these men.

rwbs@Acts:5:36 @ For before these days rose Theudas, boasting himself to be somebody; to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves: who was slain; and all, as many as obeyed him, were scattered, and brought to nought. (note:)obeyed: or, believed(:note)

rwbs@Acts:5:37 @ After this man rose Judas of Galilee in the days of the taxing, and drew away many people after him: he also perished; and all, as many as obeyed him, were dispersed. (note:)obeyed: or, believed(:note)

rwbs@Acts:5:38 @ And now I say to you, Stay away from these men, and let them alone: for if this counsel or this work is from men, it will come to nothing:

rwbs@Acts:5:39 @ But if it is from God, ye cannot overthrow it; lest perhaps ye be found even to fight against God.

rwbs@Acts:5:40 @ And to him they assented: and when they had called the apostles, and beaten, they commanded that they should not speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go.

rwbs@Acts:5:41 @ And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name.

rwbs@Acts:5:42 @ And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.

rwbs@Acts:6:1 @ And in those days, when the number of the disciples was multiplied, there arose a murmuring of the Grecians against the Hebrews, because their widows were neglected in the daily ministration.

rwbs@Acts:6:2 @ Then the twelve called the multitude of the disciples, and said, It is not desirable that we should leave the word of God, and serve tables.

rwbs@Acts:6:3 @ Therefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.

rwbs@Acts:6:4 @ But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.

rwbs@Acts:6:5 @ And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch:

rwbs@Acts:6:6 @ Whom they set before the apostles: and when they had prayed, they laid hands on them.

rwbs@Acts:6:7 @ And the word of God increased; and the number of the disciples multiplied in Jerusalem greatly; and a great company of the priests were obedient to the faith.

rwbs@Acts:6:8 @ And Stephen, full of faith and power, performed great wonders and miracles among the people.

rwbs@Acts:6:9 @ Then there arose certain of the synagogue, which is called of the Libertines, and Cyrenians, and Alexandrians, and of them of Cilicia and of Asia, disputing with Stephen.

rwbs@Acts:6:10 @ And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit by which he spoke.

rwbs@Acts:6:11 @ Then they secretly induced men, who sayd, We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses, and God.

rwbs@Acts:6:12 @ And they stirred up the people, and the elders, and the scribes, and came upon, and caught him, and brought to the council,

rwbs@Acts:6:13 @ And set up false witnesses, who said, This man ceaseth not to speak blasphemous words against this holy place, and the law:

rwbs@Acts:6:14 @ For we have heard him say, that this Jesus of Nazareth shall destroy this place, and shall change the customs which Moses delivered to us. (note:)customs: or, rites(:note)

rwbs@Acts:6:15 @ And all that sat in the council, looking steadfastly on him, saw his face as it had been the face of an angel.

rwbs@Acts:7:1 @ Then said the high priest, Are these things so?

rwbs@Acts:7:2 @ And he said, Men, brethren, and fathers, hearken; The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham, when he was in Mesopotamia, before he dwelt in Haran,

rwbs@Acts:7:3 @ And said to him, Depart from thy country, and from thy kindred, and come into the land which I shall show thee.

rwbs@Acts:7:4 @ Then he came from the land of the Chaldeans, and dwelt in Haran: and from there, when his father was dead, he removed him into this land, in which ye now dwell.

rwbs@Acts:7:5 @ And he gave him no inheritance in it, no, not to set his foot on: yet he promised that he would give it to him for a possession, and to his offspring after him, when he had no child.

rwbs@Acts:7:6 @ And God spoke in this way, That his offspring should sojourn in a foreign land; and that they should bring them into bondage, and oppress four hundred years.

rwbs@Acts:7:7 @ And the nation to whom they shall be in bondage will I judge, said God: and after that they shall come forth, and serve me in this place.

rwbs@Acts:7:8 @ And he gave him the covenant of circumcision: and so begat Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day; and Isaac Jacob; and Jacob the twelve patriarchs.

rwbs@Acts:7:9 @ And the patriarchs, moved with envy, sold Joseph into Egypt: but God was with him,

rwbs@Acts:7:10 @ And delivered him from all his afflictions, and gave him favour and wisdom in the sight of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and he made him governor over Egypt and all his house.

rwbs@Acts:7:11 @ Now there came a famine over all the land of Egypt and Canaan, and great affliction: and our fathers found no sustenance.

rwbs@Acts:7:12 @ But when Jacob heard that there was grain in Egypt, he sent out our fathers first.

rwbs@Acts:7:13 @ And at the second Joseph was made known to his brethren; and Joseph’s kindred was made known to Pharaoh.

rwbs@Acts:7:14 @ Then Joseph sent, and called his father Jacob to, and all his kindred, seventy and five souls.

rwbs@Acts:7:15 @ So Jacob went down into Egypt, and died, he, and our fathers,

rwbs@Acts:7:16 @ And were carried over into Shechem, and laid in the sepulchre that Abraham bought for a sum of money of the sons of Emmor of Shechem.

rwbs@Acts:7:17 @ But when the time of the promise drew near, which God had sworn to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt,

rwbs@Acts:7:18 @ Till another king arose, who knew not Joseph.

rwbs@Acts:7:19 @ The same dealt treacherously with our kindred, and oppressed our fathers, so that they cast out their young children, to the end they might not live.

rwbs@Acts:7:20 @ In which time Moses was born, and was exceeding fair, and nourished in his father’s house three months: (note:)exceeding fair: or, fair to God(:note)

rwbs@Acts:7:21 @ And when he was cast out, Pharaoh’s daughter took him up, and nourished him for her own son.

rwbs@Acts:7:22 @ And Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and was mighty in words and in deeds.

rwbs@Acts:7:23 @ And when he was full forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brethren the children of Israel.

rwbs@Acts:7:24 @ And seeing one suffer wrong, he defended, and avenged him that was oppressed, and smote the Egyptian:

rwbs@Acts:7:25 @ For he supposed his brethren to understand that God by his hand would deliver them: but they understood not. (note:)For: or, Now(:note)

rwbs@Acts:7:26 @ And the next day he showed himself to them as they were fighting, and would have constrained them to be at peace again, saying, Sirs, ye are brethren; why do ye wrong one to another?

rwbs@Acts:7:27 @ But he that did his neighbour wrong thrust him away, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge over us?

rwbs@Acts:7:28 @ Wilt thou kill me, as thou didst the Egyptian yesterday?

rwbs@Acts:7:29 @ Then Moses fled at this saying, and was a stranger in the land of Midian, where he begat two sons.

rwbs@Acts:7:30 @ And when forty years had passed, there appeared to him in the wilderness of mount Sinai an angel of the Lord in a flame of fire in a bush.

rwbs@Acts:7:31 @ When Moses saw, he wondered at the sight: and as he drew near to behold, the voice of the Lord came to him,

rwbs@Acts:7:32 @, I the God of thy fathers, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. Then Moses trembled, and dared not behold.

rwbs@Acts:7:33 @ Then said the Lord to him, Put off thy shoes from thy feet: for the place where thou standest is holy ground.

rwbs@Acts:7:34 @ I have seen, I have seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt, and I have heard their groaning, and am come down to deliver them. And now come, I will send thee into Egypt.

rwbs@Acts:7:35 @ This Moses whom they refused, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge? the same did God send a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the angel who appeared to him in the bush.

rwbs@Acts:7:36 @ He brought them out, after he had showed wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red sea, and in the wilderness forty years.

rwbs@Acts:7:37 @ This is that Moses, who said to the children of Israel, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up to you of your brethren, like me; him shall ye hear. (note:)like…: or, as myself(:note)

rwbs@Acts:7:38 @ This is he, that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel who spoke to him on the mount Sinai, and our fathers: who received the living oracles to give to us:

rwbs@Acts:7:39 @ Whom our fathers would not obey, but thrust from them, and in their hearts turned back again into Egypt,

rwbs@Acts:7:40 @ Saying to Aaron, Make us gods to go before us: for this Moses, who brought us out of the land of Egypt, we know not what is become of him.

rwbs@Acts:7:41 @ And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifice to the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands.

rwbs@Acts:7:42 @ Then God turned, and gave them up to worship the host of heaven; as it is written in the book of the prophets, O ye house of Israel, have ye offered to me slain beasts and sacrifices forty years in the wilderness?

rwbs@Acts:7:43 @ Yea, ye took up the tabernacle of Molech, and the star of your god Remphan, figures which ye made to worship them: and I will carry you away beyond Babylon.

rwbs@Acts:7:44 @ Our fathers had the tabernacle of testimony in the wilderness, as he had appointed, speaking to Moses, that he should make it according to the fashion that he had seen. (note:)speaking: or, who spake(:note)

rwbs@Acts:7:45 @ Which also our fathers that came after brought in with Joshua into the possession of the Gentiles, whom God drove out before the face of our fathers, to the days of David; (note:)that…: or, having received(:note)

rwbs@Acts:7:46 @ Who found favour before God, and desired to find a tabernacle for the God of Jacob.

rwbs@Acts:7:47 @ But Solomon built for him an house.

rwbs@Acts:7:48 @ Yet the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet,

rwbs@Acts:7:49 @ Heaven my throne, and earth my footstool: what house will ye build for me? saith the Lord: or what the place of my rest?

rwbs@Acts:7:50 @ Hath not my hand made all these things?

rwbs@Acts:7:51 @ Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Spirit: as your fathers, so ye.

rwbs@Acts:7:52 @ Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? and they have slain them who showed before of the coming of the Just One; of whom ye have been now the betrayers and murderers:

rwbs@Acts:7:53 @ Who have received the law by the disposition of angels, and have not kept.

rwbs@Acts:7:54 @ When they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed on him with teeth.

rwbs@Acts:7:55 @ But he, being full of the Holy Spirit, looked up steadfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God,

rwbs@Acts:7:56 @ And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God.

rwbs@Acts:7:57 @ Then they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and ran upon him with one accord,

rwbs@Acts:7:58 @ And cast out of the city, and stoned: and the witnesses laid down their clothes at a young man’s feet, whose name was Saul.

rwbs@Acts:7:59 @ And they stoned Stephen, calling upon, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.

rwbs@Acts:7:60 @ And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell asleep.

rwbs@Acts:8:1 @ And Saul was consenting to his death. And at that time there was a great persecution against the church which was at Jerusalem; and they were all scattered throughout the regions of Judaea and Samaria, except the apostles.

rwbs@Acts:8:2 @ And devout men carried Stephen, and made great lamentation over him.

rwbs@Acts:8:3 @ As for Saul, he made havoc of the church, entering into every house, and dragging off men and women committed to prison.

rwbs@Acts:8:4 @ Therefore they that were scattered went every where preaching the word.

rwbs@Acts:8:5 @ Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ to them.

rwbs@Acts:8:6 @ And the people with one accord gave heed to those things which Philip spoke, hearing and seeing the miracles which he was performing.

rwbs@Acts:8:7 @ For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed and many sick with palsies, and that were lame, were healed.

rwbs@Acts:8:8 @ And there was great joy in that city.

rwbs@Acts:8:9 @ But there was a certain man, called Simon, who before in the same city used sorcery, and bewitched the people of Samaria, saying that he was some great person:

rwbs@Acts:8:10 @ To whom they all gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, This man is the great power of God.

rwbs@Acts:8:11 @ And to him they had regard, because that for a long time he had bewitched them with sorceries.

rwbs@Acts:8:12 @ But when they believed Philip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.

rwbs@Acts:8:13 @ Then Simon himself believed also: and when he was baptized, he continued with Philip, and was amazed, beholding the miracles and signs which were done. (note:)miracles…: Gr. signs and great miracles(:note)

rwbs@Acts:8:14 @ Now when the apostles who were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent to them Peter and John:

rwbs@Acts:8:15 @ Who, when they had come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Spirit:

rwbs@Acts:8:16 @ (For as yet he had fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.)

rwbs@Acts:8:17 @ Then they laid hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.

rwbs@Acts:8:18 @ And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles’ hands the Holy Spirit was given, he offered them money,

rwbs@Acts:8:19 @ Saying, Give me also this power, that on whomever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Spirit.

rwbs@Acts:8:20 @ But Peter said to him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.

rwbs@Acts:8:21 @ Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter: for thy heart is not right in the sight of God.

rwbs@Acts:8:22 @ Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thy heart may be forgiven thee.

rwbs@Acts:8:23 @ For I perceive that thou art in the gall of bitterness, and the bond of iniquity.

rwbs@Acts:8:24 @ Then answered Simon, and said, Pray ye to the Lord for me, that none of these things which ye have spoken come upon me.

rwbs@Acts:8:25 @ And they, when they had testified and preached the word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and preached the gospel in many villages of the Samaritans.

rwbs@Acts:8:26 @ And the angel of the Lord spoke to Philip, saying, Arise, and go toward the south to the way that goeth down from Jerusalem to Gaza, which is desert.

rwbs@Acts:8:27 @ And he arose and went: and, behold, a man of Ethiopia, an eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem to worship,

rwbs@Acts:8:28 @ Was returning, and sitting in his chariot read Isaiah the prophet.

rwbs@Acts:8:29 @ Then the Spirit said to Philip, Go near, and join thyself to this chariot.

rwbs@Acts:8:30 @ And Philip ran to, and heard him reading the prophet Isaiah, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest?

rwbs@Acts:8:31 @ And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me? And he besought Philip that he would come up and sit with him.

rwbs@Acts:8:32 @ The place of the scripture which he read was this, He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so he opened not his mouth:

rwbs@Acts:8:33 @ In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: and who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the earth.

rwbs@Acts:8:34 @ And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some other man?

rwbs@Acts:8:35 @ Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached to him Jesus.

rwbs@Acts:8:36 @ And as they went on way, they came to a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?

rwbs@Acts:8:37 @ And Philip said, If thou believest with all thy heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.

rwbs@Acts:8:38 @ And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they both went down into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.

rwbs@Acts:8:39 @ And when they had come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing.

rwbs@Acts:8:40 @ But Philip was found at Azotus: and passing through he preached in all the cities, till he came to Caesarea.

rwbs@Acts:9:1 @ And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest,

rwbs@Acts:9:2 @ And desired from him letters to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he found any of this way, whether they were men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem. (note:)of this way: Gr. of the way(:note)

rwbs@Acts:9:3 @ And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shone around him a light from heaven:

rwbs@Acts:9:4 @ And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying to him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?

rwbs@Acts:9:5 @ And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: hard for thee to kick against the goads.

rwbs@Acts:9:6 @ And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? And the Lord to him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.

rwbs@Acts:9:7 @ And the men who journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice, but seeing no man.

rwbs@Acts:9:8 @ And Saul arose from the earth; and when his eyes were opened, he saw no man: but they led him by the hand, and brought into Damascus.

rwbs@Acts:9:9 @ And he was three days without sight, and neither ate nor drank.

rwbs@Acts:9:10 @ And there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias; and to him said the Lord in a vision, Ananias. And he said, Behold, I, Lord.

rwbs@Acts:9:12 @ And hath seen in a vision a man named Ananias coming in, and putting hand on him, that he might receive his sight.

rwbs@Acts:9:13 @ Then Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard by many of this man, how much evil he hath done to thy saints at Jerusalem:

rwbs@Acts:9:14 @ And here he hath authority from the chief priests to bind all that call on thy name.

rwbs@Acts:9:15 @ But the Lord said to him, Go: for he is a chosen vessel to me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel:

rwbs@Acts:9:16 @ For I will show him what great things he must suffer for my name’s sake.

rwbs@Acts:9:17 @ And Ananias went, and entered into the house; and putting his hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, Jesus, that appeared to thee in the way as thou camest, hath sent me, that thou mayest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Spirit.

rwbs@Acts:9:18 @ And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales: and he received sight immediately, and arose, and was baptized.

rwbs@Acts:9:19 @ And when he had received food, he was strengthened. Then was Saul certain days with the disciples who were at Damascus.

rwbs@Acts:9:20 @ And immediately he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.

rwbs@Acts:9:21 @ But all that heard were amazed, and said; Is not this he that destroyed them who called on this name in Jerusalem, and came here for that intent, that he might bring them bound to the chief priests?

rwbs@Acts:9:22 @ But Saul increased the more in strength, and confounded the Jews who dwelt at Damascus, proving that this is very Christ.

rwbs@Acts:9:23 @ And after many days were fulfilled, the Jews took counsel to kill him:

rwbs@Acts:9:24 @ But their laying in wait was known to Saul. And they watched the gates day and night to kill him.

rwbs@Acts:9:25 @ Then the disciples took him by night, and let down by the wall in a basket.

rwbs@Acts:9:26 @ And when Saul had come to Jerusalem, he tried to join himself to the disciples: but they were all afraid of him, and believed not that he was a disciple.

rwbs@Acts:9:27 @ But Barnabas took him, and brought to the apostles, and declared to them how he had seen the Lord in the way, and that he had spoken to him, and how he had preached boldly at Damascus in the name of Jesus.

rwbs@Acts:9:28 @ And he was with them coming in and going out at Jerusalem.

rwbs@Acts:9:30 @ when the brethren knew, they brought him down to Caesarea, and sent him forth to Tarsus.

rwbs@Acts:9:31 @ Then had the churches rest throughout all Judaea and Galilee and Samaria, and were edified; and walking in the fear of the Lord, and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit, were multiplied.

rwbs@Acts:9:32 @ And it came to pass, as Peter passed throughout all, he came down also to the saints who dwelt at Lydda.

rwbs@Acts:9:33 @ And there he found a certain man named Æneas, who had kept his bed eight years, and was sick with the palsy.

rwbs@Acts:9:34 @ And Peter said to him, Æneas, Jesus Christ healeth thee: arise, and make thy bed. And he arose immediately.

rwbs@Acts:9:35 @ And all that dwelt at Lydda and Saron saw him, and turned to the Lord.

rwbs@Acts:9:36 @ Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, who by interpretation is called Dorcas: this woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did. (note:)Dorcas: or, Doe, or, Roe(:note)

rwbs@Acts:9:37 @ And it came to pass in those days, that she was sick, and died: whom when they had washed, they laid in an upper chamber.

rwbs@Acts:9:38 @ And as Lydda was near to Joppa, and the disciples had heard that Peter was there, they sent to him two men, desiring that he would not delay to come to them. (note:)delay: or, be grieved(:note)

rwbs@Acts:9:39 @ Then Peter arose and went with them. When he had come, they brought him into the upper chamber: and all the widows stood by him weeping, and showing the coats and garments which Dorcas made, while she was with them.

rwbs@Acts:9:40 @ But Peter put them all out, and kneeled down, and prayed; and turning to the body said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes: and when she saw Peter, she sat up.

rwbs@Acts:9:41 @ And he gave her hand, and lifted her up, and when he had called the saints and widows, presented her alive.

rwbs@Acts:9:42 @ And it was known throughout all Joppa; and many believed in the Lord.

rwbs@Acts:9:43 @ And it came to pass, that he tarried many days in Joppa with one Simon a tanner.

rwbs@Acts:10:1 @ There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian,

rwbs@Acts:10:2 @ devout, and one that feared God with all his house, who gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God always.

rwbs@Acts:10:3 @ He saw in a vision evidently about the ninth hour of the day an angel of God coming in to him, and saying to him, Cornelius.

rwbs@Acts:10:4 @ And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said, What is it, Lord? And he said to him, Thy prayers and thy alms are come up for a memorial before God.

rwbs@Acts:10:5 @ And now send men to Joppa, and call for Simon, whose surname is Peter:

rwbs@Acts:10:6 @ He lodgeth with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by the sea side: he shall tell thee what thou oughtest to do.

rwbs@Acts:10:7 @ And when the angel who spoke to Cornelius had departed, he called two of his household servants, and a devout soldier of them that waited on him continually;

rwbs@Acts:10:8 @ And when he had declared all things to them, he sent them to Joppa.

rwbs@Acts:10:9 @ On the next day, as they were going on their journey, and drew near to the city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray about the sixth hour:

rwbs@Acts:10:10 @ And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but while they made ready, he fell into a trance,

rwbs@Acts:10:11 @ And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending to him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth:

rwbs@Acts:10:12 @ In which were all manner of fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air.

rwbs@Acts:10:13 @ And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat.

rwbs@Acts:10:14 @ But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean.

rwbs@Acts:10:15 @ And the voice to him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, call not thou common.

rwbs@Acts:10:16 @ This was done three times: and the vessel was received up again into heaven.

rwbs@Acts:10:17 @ Now while Peter greatly perplexed in himself what this vision which he had seen should mean, behold, the men who were sent from Cornelius had made enquiry for Simon’s house, and stood before the gate,

rwbs@Acts:10:18 @ And called, and asked whether Simon, who was surnamed Peter, lodged there.

rwbs@Acts:10:19 @ While Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said to him, Behold, three men seek thee.

rwbs@Acts:10:20 @ Arise therefore, and go down, and go with them, doubting nothing: for I have sent them.

rwbs@Acts:10:21 @ Then Peter went down to the men who were sent to him from Cornelius; and said, Behold, I am he whom ye seek: what the cause for which ye have come?

rwbs@Acts:10:22 @ And they said, Cornelius the centurion, a just man, and one that feareth God, and of good report among all the nation of the Jews, was warned from God by an holy angel to send for thee into his house, and to hear words from thee.

rwbs@Acts:10:23 @ Then he called them in, and lodged. And on the next day Peter went with them, and certain brethren from Joppa accompanied him.

rwbs@Acts:10:24 @ And on the next day they entered into Caesarea. And Cornelius waited for them, and had called together his kinsmen and near friends.

rwbs@Acts:10:25 @ And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and fell down at his feet, and worshipped.

rwbs@Acts:10:26 @ But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man.

rwbs@Acts:10:27 @ And as he talked with him, he went in, and found many that had come together.

rwbs@Acts:10:28 @ And he said to them, Ye know that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come to one of another nation; but God hath shown me that I should not call any man common or unclean.

rwbs@Acts:10:29 @ Therefore I came willingly, as soon as I was sent for: I ask therefore for what intent ye have sent for me?

rwbs@Acts:10:30 @ And Cornelius said, Four days ago I was fasting until this hour; and at the ninth hour I prayed in my house, and, behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing,

rwbs@Acts:10:31 @ And said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thy alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.

rwbs@Acts:10:32 @ Send therefore to Joppa, and call here Simon, whose surname is Peter; he lodgeth in the house of Simon a tanner by the sea side: who, when he cometh, shall speak to thee.

rwbs@Acts:10:33 @ Immediately therefore I sent to thee; and thou hast well done that thou hast come. Now therefore we are all here present before God, to hear all things that are commanded thee from God.

rwbs@Acts:10:34 @ Then Peter opened mouth, and said, In truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:

rwbs@Acts:10:35 @ But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.

rwbs@Acts:10:36 @ The word which sent to the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all:)

rwbs@Acts:10:37 @ That word,, ye know, which was proclaimed throughout all Judaea, and began from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached;

rwbs@Acts:10:38 @ That God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed by the devil; for God was with him.

rwbs@Acts:10:39 @ And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the land of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom they slew and hanged on a tree:

rwbs@Acts:10:40 @ Him God raised the third day, and showed him openly;

rwbs@Acts:10:41 @ Not to all the people, but to witnesses chosen before by God, to us, who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead.

rwbs@Acts:10:42 @ And he commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify that it is he who was ordained by God the Judge of the living and the dead.

rwbs@Acts:10:43 @ To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.

rwbs@Acts:10:44 @ While Peter was yet speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell on all them who heard the word.

rwbs@Acts:10:45 @ And they of the circumcision who believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Spirit.

rwbs@Acts:10:46 @ For they heard them speak in tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter,

rwbs@Acts:10:47 @ Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, who have received the Holy Spirit as well as we?

rwbs@Acts:10:48 @ And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then they requested him to tarry certain days.

rwbs@Acts:11:1 @ And the apostles and brethren that were in Judaea heard that the Gentiles also had received the word of God.

rwbs@Acts:11:2 @ And when Peter had come to Jerusalem, they that were of the circumcision contended with him,

rwbs@Acts:11:3 @ Saying, Thou wentest in to men uncircumcised, and didst eat with them.

rwbs@Acts:11:4 @ But Peter went over from the beginning, and expounded by order to them, saying,

rwbs@Acts:11:5 @ I was in the city of Joppa praying: and in a trance I saw a vision, A certain vessel descend, like a great sheet, let down from heaven by four corners; and it came even to me:

rwbs@Acts:11:6 @ Upon which when I had fastened my eyes, I considered, and saw fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air.

rwbs@Acts:11:7 @ And I heard a voice saying to me, Arise, Peter; slay and eat.

rwbs@Acts:11:8 @ But I said, Not so, Lord: for nothing common or unclean hath at any time entered into my mouth.

rwbs@Acts:11:9 @ But the voice answered me again from heaven, What God hath cleansed, call not thou common.

rwbs@Acts:11:10 @ And this was done three times: and all were drawn up again into heaven.

rwbs@Acts:11:11 @ And, behold, immediately there were three men already come to the house where I was, sent from Caesarea to me.

rwbs@Acts:11:12 @ And the Spirit bade me go with them, nothing doubting. Moreover these six brethren accompanied me, and we entered into the man’s house:

rwbs@Acts:11:13 @ And he showed us how he had seen an angel in his house, who stood and said to him, Send men to Joppa, and call for Simon, whose surname is Peter;

rwbs@Acts:11:14 @ Who shall tell thee words, by which thou and all thy house shall be saved.

rwbs@Acts:11:15 @ And as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell on them, as on us at the beginning.

rwbs@Acts:11:16 @ Then I remembered the word of the Lord, how he said, John indeed baptized in water; but ye shall be baptized in the Holy Spirit.

rwbs@Acts:11:17 @ Forasmuch then as God gave them the same gift as to us, who believed on the Lord Jesus Christ; what was I, that I could withstand God?

rwbs@Acts:11:18 @ When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles granted repentance to life.

rwbs@Acts:11:19 @ Now they who were dispersed upon the persecution that arose about Stephen travelled as far as Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to none but to the Jews only.

rwbs@Acts:11:20 @ And some of them were men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who, when they had come to Antioch, spoke to the Grecians, preaching the Lord Jesus.

rwbs@Acts:11:21 @ And the hand of the Lord was with them: and a great number believed, and turned to the Lord.

rwbs@Acts:11:22 @ Then tidings of these things came to the ears of the church which was in Jerusalem: and they sent forth Barnabas, that he should go as far as Antioch.

rwbs@Acts:11:23 @ Who, when he came, and had seen the grace of God, was glad, and exhorted them all, that with purpose of heart they would continue with the Lord.

rwbs@Acts:11:24 @ For he was a good man, and full of the Holy Spirit and of faith: and many people were added to the Lord.

rwbs@Acts:11:25 @ Then Barnabas departed to Tarsus, to seek Saul:

rwbs@Acts:11:26 @ And when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught many people. And the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch. (note:)with…: or, in the church(:note)

rwbs@Acts:11:27 @ And in these days came prophets from Jerusalem to Antioch.

rwbs@Acts:11:28 @ And there stood up one of them named Agabus, and signified by the Spirit that there should be a great famine throughout all the world: which came to pass in the days of Claudius Caesar.

rwbs@Acts:11:29 @ Then the disciples, every man according to his ability, determined to send relief to the brethren who dwelt in Judaea:

rwbs@Acts:11:30 @ Which also they did, and sent it to the elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul.

rwbs@Acts:12:1 @ Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth hands to afflict certain of the church. (note:)stretched…: or, began(:note)

rwbs@Acts:12:2 @ And he killed James the brother of John with the sword.

rwbs@Acts:12:3 @ And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.)

rwbs@Acts:12:4 @ And when he had apprehended him, he put in prison, and delivered to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after the Passover to bring him forth to the people. (note:)quaternions: a file of four soldiers(:note)Easter: Gr. Passover

rwbs@Acts:12:5 @ Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing by the church to God for him. (note:)prayer…: or, instant and earnest prayer was made(:note)

rwbs@Acts:12:6 @ And when Herod would have brought him forth, the same night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains: and the keepers before the door kept the prison.

rwbs@Acts:12:7 @ And, behold, the angel of the Lord came upon, and a light shone in the prison: and he smote Peter on the side, and raised him up, saying, Arise quickly. And his chains fell off from hands.

rwbs@Acts:12:8 @ And the angel said to him, Gird thyself, and bind on thy sandals. And so he did. And he saith to him, Cast thy garment about thee, and follow me.

rwbs@Acts:12:9 @ And he went out, and followed him; and knew not that it was true which was done by the angel; but thought he saw a vision.

rwbs@Acts:12:10 @ When they were past the first and the second guard, they came to the iron gate that leadeth to the city; which opened to them of its own accord: and they went out, and passed on through one street; and immediately the angel departed from him.

rwbs@Acts:12:11 @ And when Peter had come to himself, he said, Now I know with certainty, that the Lord hath sent his angel, and hath delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and all the expectation of the people of the Jews.

rwbs@Acts:12:12 @ And when he had considered, he came to the house of Mary the mother of John, whose surname was Mark; where many were gathered together praying.

rwbs@Acts:12:13 @ And as Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a maid came to answer, named Rhoda. (note:)to hearken: or, to ask who was there(:note)

rwbs@Acts:12:14 @ And when she knew Peter’s voice, she opened not the gate for gladness, but ran in, and told that Peter stood before the gate.

rwbs@Acts:12:15 @ And they said to her, Thou art mad. But she constantly affirmed that it was even so. Then they said, It is his angel.

rwbs@Acts:12:16 @ But Peter continued knocking: and when they had opened, and saw him, they were astonished.

rwbs@Acts:12:17 @ But he, beckoning to them with the hand to hold their peace, declared to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, Go show these things to James, and to the brethren. And he departed, and went into another place.

rwbs@Acts:12:18 @ Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers, what was become of Peter.

rwbs@Acts:12:19 @ And when Herod had sought for him, and found him not, he examined the keepers, and commanded that should be put to death. And he went down from Judaea to Caesarea, and abode.

rwbs@Acts:12:20 @ And Herod was highly displeased with them of Tyre and Sidon: but they came with one accord to him, and, having made Blastus the king’s chamberlain their friend, desired peace; because their country was nourished by the king’s.

rwbs@Acts:12:22 @ And the people gave a shout, the voice of a god, and not of a man.

rwbs@Acts:12:23 @ And immediately the angel of the Lord smote him, because he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten by worms, and died.

rwbs@Acts:12:24 @ But the word of God grew and multiplied.

rwbs@Acts:12:25 @ And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, when they had fulfilled ministry, and took with them John, whose surname was Mark. (note:)ministry: or, charge(:note)

rwbs@Acts:13:1 @ Now there were in the church that was at Antioch certain prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, who had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul. (note:)which…: or, Herod’s foster brother(:note)

rwbs@Acts:13:2 @ As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, Separate for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.

rwbs@Acts:13:4 @ So they, being sent forth by the Holy Spirit, departed to Seleucia; and from there they sailed to Cyprus.

rwbs@Acts:13:5 @ And when they were at Salamis, they preached the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews: and they had also John as helper.

rwbs@Acts:13:6 @ And when they had gone through the isle to Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name Barjesus:

rwbs@Acts:13:7 @ Who was with the deputy of the country, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man; who called for Barnabas and Saul, and desired to hear the word of God.

rwbs@Acts:13:8 @ But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith.

rwbs@Acts:13:9 @ Then Saul, (who also Paul,) filled with the Holy Spirit, set his eyes on him,

rwbs@Acts:13:10 @ And said, O full of all deceit and all mischief, child of the devil, enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?

rwbs@Acts:13:11 @ And now, behold, the hand of the Lord upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand.

rwbs@Acts:13:12 @ Then the deputy, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the doctrine of the Lord.

rwbs@Acts:13:13 @ Now when Paul and his company loosed from Paphos, they came to Perga in Pamphylia: and John departing from them returned to Jerusalem.

rwbs@Acts:13:14 @ But when they departed from Perga, they came to Antioch in Pisidia, and went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and sat down.

rwbs@Acts:13:15 @ And after the reading of the law and the prophets the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, Men, brethren, if ye have any word of exhortation for the people, say on.

rwbs@Acts:13:16 @ Then Paul stood up, and beckoning with hand said, Men of Israel, and ye that fear God, listen.

rwbs@Acts:13:17 @ The God of this people Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they dwelt as strangers in the land of Egypt, and with an high arm he brought them out of it.

rwbs@Acts:13:22 @ And when he had removed him, he raised up to them David to be their king; to whom also he gave testimony, and said, I have found David the of Jesse, a man after my own heart, who shall fulfil all my will.

rwbs@Acts:13:23 @ Of this man’s seed hath God according to promise raised up to Israel a Saviour, Jesus:

rwbs@Acts:14:25 @ And when they had preached the word in Perga, they went down into Attalia:

rwbs@Acts:14:26 @ And from there sailed to Antioch, where they had been commended from to the grace of God for the work which they fulfilled.

rwbs@Acts:14:27 @ And when they had come, and had gathered the church together, they reported all that God had done with them, and that he had opened the door of faith to the Gentiles.

rwbs@Acts:14:28 @ And there they abode a long time with the disciples.

rwbs@Acts:15:1 @ And certain men who came down from Judaea taught the brethren,, Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved.

rwbs@Acts:15:2 @ When therefore Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and disputation with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas, and certain others of them, should go to Jerusalem to the apostles and elders about this question.

rwbs@Acts:15:3 @ And being brought on their way by the church, they passed through Phenice and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the Gentiles: and they caused great joy to all the brethren.

rwbs@Acts:15:4 @ And when they had come to Jerusalem, they were received by the church, and the apostles and elders, and they declared all things that God had done with them.

rwbs@Acts:15:5 @ But there rose certain of the sect of the Pharisees who believed, saying, That it was needful to circumcise them, and to command to keep the law of Moses. (note:)rose…: or, rose up, said they, certain(:note)

rwbs@Acts:15:6 @ And the apostles and elders came together to consider of this matter.

rwbs@Acts:15:7 @ And when there had been much disputing, Peter rose, and said to them, Men, brethren, ye know that a good while ago God made choice among us, that the Gentiles by my mouth should hear the word of the gospel, and believe.

rwbs@Acts:15:8 @ And God, who knoweth the hearts, bore them witness, giving to them the Holy Spirit, even as to us;

rwbs@Acts:15:9 @ And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.

rwbs@Acts:15:10 @ Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?

rwbs@Acts:15:11 @ But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved, even as they.

rwbs@Acts:15:12 @ Then all the multitude kept silence, and hearkened to Barnabas and Paul, declaring what miracles and wonders God had wrought by them among the Gentiles.

rwbs@Acts:15:13 @ And after they held their peace, James answered, saying, Men, brethren, hearken to me:

rwbs@Acts:15:14 @ Simeon hath declared how God at the first visited the Gentiles, to take from among them a people for his name.

rwbs@Acts:15:15 @ And to this agree the words of the prophets; as it is written,

rwbs@Acts:15:16 @ After this I will return, and will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen down; and I will build again its ruins, and I will set it up:

rwbs@Acts:15:17 @ That the rest of men may seek after the Lord, and all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called, saith the Lord, who doeth all these things.

rwbs@Acts:15:18 @ Known to God are all his works from the beginning of the world.

rwbs@Acts:15:19 @ Therefore my judgment is, that we trouble not them, who from among the Gentiles are turned to God:

rwbs@Acts:15:20 @ But that we write to them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and immorality, and things strangled, and blood.

rwbs@Acts:15:21 @ For Moses of old time hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath.

rwbs@Acts:15:22 @ Then it pleased the apostles and elders, with the whole church, to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas;, Judas surnamed Barsabas, and Silas, chief men among the brethren:

rwbs@Acts:15:23 @ And they wrote by them after this manner; The apostles and elders and brethren greeting to the brethren who are of the Gentiles in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia:

rwbs@Acts:15:24 @ Forasmuch as we have heard, that certain who went out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls, saying, be circumcised, and keep the law: to whom we gave no commandment:

rwbs@Acts:15:25 @ It seemed good to us, being assembled with one accord, to send chosen men to you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,

rwbs@Acts:15:26 @ Men that have risked their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

rwbs@Acts:15:27 @ We have sent therefore Judas and Silas, who shall also tell the same things by mouth. (note:)mouth: Gr. word(:note)

rwbs@Acts:15:28 @ For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things;

rwbs@Acts:15:29 @ That ye abstain from things offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from immorality: from which if ye keep yourselves, ye shall do well. Fare ye well.

rwbs@Acts:15:30 @ So when they were dismissed, they came to Antioch: and when they had gathered the multitude together, they delivered the epistle:

rwbs@Acts:15:31 @ when they had read, they rejoiced for the consolation. (note:)consolation: or, exhortation(:note)

rwbs@Acts:15:32 @ And Judas and Silas, being prophets also themselves, exhorted the brethren with many words, and confirmed.

rwbs@Acts:15:33 @ And after they had tarried a time, they were sent away in peace from the brethren to the apostles.

rwbs@Acts:15:34 @ However it pleased Silas to abide there still.

rwbs@Acts:15:35 @ Paul also and Barnabas continued in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also.

rwbs@Acts:15:36 @ And some days after Paul said to Barnabas, Let us go again and visit our brethren in every city where we have preached the word of the Lord, how they do.

rwbs@Acts:15:37 @ And Barnabas determined to take with them John, whose surname was Mark.

rwbs@Acts:15:38 @ But Paul thought not good to take him with them, who departed from them from Pamphylia, and went not with them to the work.

rwbs@Acts:15:39 @ And the contention was so sharp between them, that they departed one from the other: and so Barnabas took Mark, and sailed to Cyprus;

rwbs@Acts:15:40 @ And Paul chose Silas, and departed, being commended by the brethren to the grace of God.

rwbs@Acts:15:41 @ And he went through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the churches.

rwbs@Acts:16:1 @ Then he came to Derbe and Lystra: and, behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a certain woman, who was a Jewess, and believed; but his father a Greek:

rwbs@Acts:16:2 @ Who was well reported of by the brethren that were at Lystra and Iconium.

rwbs@Acts:16:3 @ Him would Paul have to go forth with him; and took and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in those quarters: for they all knew that his father was a Greek.

rwbs@Acts:16:4 @ And as they went through the cities, they delivered to them the decrees to keep, that were ordained by the apostles and elders who were at Jerusalem.

rwbs@Acts:16:5 @ And so were the churches established in the faith, and increased in number daily.

rwbs@Acts:16:6 @ Now when they had gone throughout Phrygia and the region of Galatia, and were forbidden by the Holy Spirit to preach the word in Asia,

rwbs@Acts:16:7 @ After they had come to Mysia, they tried to go into Bithynia: but the Spirit allowed them not.

rwbs@Acts:16:8 @ And they passing by Mysia came down to Troas.

rwbs@Acts:16:9 @ And a vision appeared to Paul in the night; There stood a man of Macedonia, beseeching him, saying, Come over into Macedonia, and help us.

rwbs@Acts:16:10 @ And after he had seen the vision, immediately we endeavoured to go into Macedonia, assuredly gathering that the Lord had called us to preach the gospel to them.

rwbs@Acts:16:11 @ Therefore loosing from Troas, we came with a straight course to Samothracia, and the next to Neapolis;

rwbs@Acts:16:12 @ And from there to Philippi, which is the chief city of that part of Macedonia, a colony: and we were in that city abiding certain days. (note:)the chief: or, the first(:note)

rwbs@Acts:16:13 @ And on the sabbath day we went out of the city by a river side, where prayer was accustomed to be made; and we sat down, and spoke to the women who resorted. (note:)sabbath: Gr. sabbath day(:note)

rwbs@Acts:16:14 @ And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, who worshipped God, heard: whose heart the Lord opened, that she attended to the things which were spoken by Paul.

rwbs@Acts:16:15 @ And when she was baptized, and her household, she besought, saying, If ye have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house, and abide. And she constrained us.

rwbs@Acts:16:16 @ And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain maid possessed with a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much gain by soothsaying: (note:)of divination: or, of Python(:note)

rwbs@Acts:16:17 @ The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, who show to us the way of salvation.

rwbs@Acts:16:18 @ And this she did many days. But Paul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out the same hour.

rwbs@Acts:16:19 @ And when her masters saw that the hope of their gains was gone, they caught Paul and Silas, and drew into the marketplace to the rulers, (note:)marketplace: or, court(:note)

rwbs@Acts:16:20 @ And brought them to the magistrates, saying, These men, being Jews, do exceedingly trouble our city,

rwbs@Acts:16:21 @ And teach customs, which are not lawful for us to receive, neither to observe, being Romans.

rwbs@Acts:16:22 @ And the multitude rose up together against them: and the magistrates tore off their clothes, and commanded to beat.

rwbs@Acts:16:23 @ And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast into prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely:

rwbs@Acts:16:24 @ Who, having received such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks.

rwbs@Acts:16:25 @ And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises to God: and the prisoners heard them.

rwbs@Acts:16:26 @ And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one’s bands were loosed.

rwbs@Acts:16:27 @ And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had fled.

rwbs@Acts:16:28 @ But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here.

rwbs@Acts:16:29 @ Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas,

rwbs@Acts:16:30 @ And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?

rwbs@Acts:16:31 @ And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

rwbs@Acts:16:32 @ And they spoke to him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house.

rwbs@Acts:16:33 @ And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, without delay.

rwbs@Acts:16:34 @ And when he had brought them into his house, he set food before them, and rejoiced, believing in God with all his house.

rwbs@Acts:16:35 @ And when it was day, the magistrates sent the officers, saying, Let those men go.

rwbs@Acts:16:36 @ And the keeper of the prison told this saying to Paul, The magistrates have sent to let you go: now therefore depart, and go in peace.

rwbs@Acts:16:37 @ But Paul said to them, They have beaten us openly uncondemned, being Romans, and have cast into prison; and now do they thrust us out privately? nay verily; but let them come themselves and bring us out.

rwbs@Acts:16:38 @ And the officers told these words to the magistrates: and they feared, when they heard that they were Romans.

rwbs@Acts:16:39 @ And they came and besought them, and brought out, and desired to depart out of the city.

rwbs@Acts:16:40 @ And they went out of the prison, and entered into Lydia: and when they had seen the brethren, they comforted them, and departed.

rwbs@Acts:17:1 @ Now when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where was a synagogue of the Jews:

rwbs@Acts:17:2 @ And Paul, as his manner was, went in to them, and on three sabbaths reasoned with them out of the scriptures,

rwbs@Acts:17:3 @ Opening and alleging, that it was needful that Christ should suffer, and rise again from the dead; and that this Jesus, whom I preach to you, is Christ. (note:)whom…: or, whom, said he, I preach(:note)

rwbs@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.

rwbs@Acts:17:5 @ But the Jews who believed not, moved with envy, took to them certain wicked fellows of the baser sort, and gathered a company, and set all the city in an uproar, and assaulted the house of Jason, and sought to bring them out to the people.

rwbs@Acts:17:6 @ And when they found them not, they drew Jason and certain brethren to the rulers of the city, crying, These that have turned the world upside down have come here also;

rwbs@Acts:17:7 @ Whom Jason hath received: and these all do contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, Jesus.

rwbs@Acts:17:8 @ And they troubled the people and the rulers of the city, when they heard these things.

rwbs@Acts:17:9 @ And when they had taken security of Jason, and of the others, they let them go.

rwbs@Acts:17:10 @ And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night to Berea: who coming went into the synagogue of the Jews.

rwbs@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.

rwbs@Acts:17:12 @ Therefore many of them believed; also of honourable women who were Greeks, and of men, not a few.

rwbs@Acts:17:13 @ But when the Jews of Thessalonica had knowledge that the word of God was preached by Paul at Berea, they came there also, and stirred up the people.

rwbs@Acts:17:14 @ And then immediately the brethren sent away Paul to go as it were to the sea: but Silas and Timothy abode there still.

rwbs@Acts:17:15 @ And they that conducted Paul brought him to Athens: and receiving a commandment to Silas and Timothy to come to him with all speed, they departed.

rwbs@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. (note:)wholly…: or, full of idols(:note)

rwbs@Acts:17:17 @ Therefore he disputed in the synagogue with the Jews, and with the devout persons, and in the market daily with them that met with him.

rwbs@Acts:17:18 @ Then certain philosophers of the Epicureans, and of the Stoics, encountered him. And some said, What will this babbler say? some others, He seemeth to be a setter forth of strange gods: because he preached to them Jesus, and the resurrection. (note:)babbler: or, base fellow(:note)

rwbs@Acts:17:19 @ And they took him, and brought him to Areopagus, saying, May we know what this new doctrine is, of which thou speakest? (note:)Areopagus: or, Mars’ hill: it was the highest court in Athens(:note)

rwbs@Acts:17:20 @ For thou bringest certain strange things to our ears: we would know therefore what these things mean.

rwbs@Acts:17:21 @ (For all the Athenians and strangers who were there spent their time in nothing else, but either to tell, or to hear some new thing.)

rwbs@Acts:17:22 @ Then Paul stood in the midst of Mars’ hill, and said, men of Athens, I perceive that in all things ye are very religious. (note:)Mars’ hill: or, the court of the Areopagites(:note)

rwbs@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 to you. (note:)devotions: or, gods that ye worship(:note)

rwbs@Acts:17:24 @ God that made the world and all things in it, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;

rwbs@Acts:17:25 @ Neither is worshipped with men’s hands, as though he needed any thing, seeing he giveth to all life, and breath, and all things;

rwbs@Acts:17:26 @ And hath made of one blood all nations of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation;

rwbs@Acts:17:27 @ That they should seek the Lord, if perhaps they might grope after him, and find him, though he is not far from every one of us:

rwbs@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.

rwbs@Acts:17:29 @ Being then the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like gold, or silver, or stone, formed by art and man’s device.

rwbs@Acts:17:30 @ And the times of this ignorance God overlooked; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:

rwbs@Acts:17:31 @ Because he hath appointed a day, when he will judge the world in righteousness by man whom he hath ordained; he hath given assurance to all, in that he hath raised him from the dead. (note:)hath given…: or, offered faith(:note)

rwbs@Acts:17:32 @ And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked: and others said, We will hear thee again concerning this.

rwbs@Acts:17:33 @ So Paul departed from among them.

rwbs@Acts:17:34 @ But certain men joined themselves to him, and believed: among whom Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them.

rwbs@Acts:18:1 @ After these things Paul departed from Athens, and came to Corinth;

rwbs@Acts:18:2 @ 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 he came to them.

rwbs@Acts:18:3 @ And because he was of the same trade, he abode with them, and worked: for by their occupation they were tentmakers.

rwbs@Acts:18:4 @ And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded the Jews and the Greeks.

rwbs@Acts:18:5 @ And when Silas and Timothy had come from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in spirit, and testified to the Jews Jesus Christ. (note:)was Christ: or, is the Christ(:note)

rwbs@Acts:18:6 @ And when they opposed them, and blasphemed, he shook raiment, and said to them, Your blood upon your own heads; I clean: from henceforth I will go to the Gentiles.

rwbs@Acts:18:7 @ And he departed from there, and entered into the house of a certain man named Justus, that worshipped God, whose house was next to the synagogue.

rwbs@Acts:18:8 @ 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.

rwbs@Acts:18:9 @ Then the Lord spoke to Paul in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace:

rwbs@Acts:18:10 @ For I am with thee, and no man shall lay hands on thee to hurt thee: for I have many people in this city.

rwbs@Acts:18:11 @ And he continued a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them. (note:)continued there: Gr. sat there(:note)

rwbs@Acts:18:12 @ And when Gallio was the deputy of Achaia, the Jews made insurrection with one accord against Paul, and brought him to the judgment seat,

rwbs@Acts:18:13 @ Saying, This persuadeth men to worship God contrary to the law.

rwbs@Acts:18:14 @ And when Paul was now about to open mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, If it were a matter of wrong or wicked crimes, O Jews, reason would that I should bear with you:

rwbs@Acts:18:15 @ But if it is a question of words and names, and your law, look ye; for I will be no judge of such.

rwbs@Acts:18:16 @ And he drove them from the judgment seat.

rwbs@Acts:18:17 @ Then all the Greeks took Sosthenes, the chief ruler of the synagogue, and beat before the judgment seat. And Gallio cared for none of those things.

rwbs@Acts:18:18 @ And Paul tarried yet a good while, and took his leave of the brethren, and sailed from there into Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila; having shorn head in Cenchrea: for he had a vow.

rwbs@Acts:18:19 @ And he came to Ephesus, and left them there: but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews.

rwbs@Acts:18:20 @ When they desired to tarry longer time with them, he consented not;

rwbs@Acts:18:21 @ But bade them farewell, saying, I must by all means keep this feast that cometh in Jerusalem: but I will return to you, if God will. And he sailed from Ephesus.

rwbs@Acts:18:22 @ And when he had landed at Caesarea, and gone up, and greeted the church, he went down to Antioch.

rwbs@Acts:18:23 @ And after he had spent some time, he departed, and went over the country of Galatia and Phrygia in order, strengthening all the disciples.

rwbs@Acts:18:24 @ And a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man, mighty in the scriptures, came to Ephesus.

rwbs@Acts:18:25 @ This man was instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in the spirit, he spoke and taught diligently the things of the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John.

rwbs@Acts:18:26 @ And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue: whom when Aquila and Priscilla had heard, they took him, and expounded to him the way of God more perfectly.

rwbs@Acts:18:27 @ And when he was disposed to pass into Achaia, the brethren wrote, exhorting the disciples to receive him: who, when he had come, helped them much who had believed through grace:

rwbs@Acts:18:28 @ For he mightily convinced the Jews, publicly, showing by the scriptures that Jesus was Christ. (note:)Christ: or, is the Christ(:note)

rwbs@Acts:19:1 @ And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper regions came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples,

rwbs@Acts:19:2 @ He said to them, Have ye received the Holy Spirit since ye believed? And they said to him, We have not so much as heard whether there is any Holy Spirit.

rwbs@Acts:19:3 @ And he said to them, Into what then were ye baptized? And they said, Into John’s baptism.

rwbs@Acts:19:4 @ Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying to the people, that they should believe on him who should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.

rwbs@Acts:19:5 @ When they heard, they were baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus.

rwbs@Acts:19:6 @ And when Paul had laid hands upon them, the Holy Spirit came on them; and they spoke with tongues, and prophesied.

rwbs@Acts:19:7 @ And all the men were about twelve.

rwbs@Acts:19:8 @ And he went into the synagogue, and spoke boldly for the space of three months, disputing and persuading the things concerning the kingdom of God.

rwbs@Acts:19:9 @ But when some were hardened, and believed not, but spoke evil of that way before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated the disciples, disputing daily in the school of one Tyrannus.

rwbs@Acts:19:10 @ And this continued for the space of two years; so that all they who dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.

rwbs@Acts:19:11 @ And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul:

rwbs@Acts:19:12 @ So that from his body were brought to the sick, handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them.

rwbs@Acts:19:13 @ Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them who had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth.

rwbs@Acts:19:14 @ And there were seven sons of Sceva, a Jew, chief of the priests, who did so.

rwbs@Acts:19:15 @ And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye?

rwbs@Acts:19:16 @ And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.

rwbs@Acts:19:17 @ And this was known to all the Jews and Greeks also dwelling at Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.

rwbs@Acts:19:18 @ And many that believed came, and confessed, and showed their deeds.

rwbs@Acts:19:19 @ Many also of them who practised magic brought their books together, and burned them before all: and they counted the price of them, and found fifty thousand of silver.

rwbs@Acts:19:20 @ So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.

rwbs@Acts:19:21 @ After these things were ended, Paul purposed in the spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, After I have been there, I must also see Rome.

rwbs@Acts:19:22 @ So he sent into Macedonia two of them that ministered to him, Timothy and Erastus; but he himself stayed in Asia for a season.

rwbs@Acts:19:23 @ And the same time there arose no small stir about that way.

rwbs@Acts:19:24 @ For a certain named Demetrius, a silversmith, who made silver shrines for Diana, brought no small gain to the craftsmen;

rwbs@Acts:19:25 @ Whom he called together with the workmen of like occupation, and said, Sirs, ye know that by this craft we have our wealth.

rwbs@Acts:19:26 @ Moreover ye see and hear, that not alone at Ephesus, but almost throughout all Asia, this Paul hath persuaded and turned away many people, saying that they are no gods, which are made with hands:

rwbs@Acts:19:27 @ So that not only this our craft is in danger to be set at nought; but also that the temple of the great goddess Diana should be despised, and her magnificence should be destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worshippeth. (note:)set at nought: or, brought into disrepute, or, contempt(:note)

rwbs@Acts:19:28 @ And when they heard, they were full of wrath, and cried out, saying, Great Diana of the Ephesians.

rwbs@Acts:19:29 @ And the whole city was filled with confusion: and having caught Gaius and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul’s companions in travel, they rushed with one accord into the theatre.

rwbs@Acts:19:30 @ And when Paul would have entered in to the people, the disciples permitted him not.

rwbs@Acts:19:31 @ And certain of the chief of Asia, who were his friends, sent to him, beseeching that he would not venture himself into the theatre.

rwbs@Acts:19:32 @ Some therefore cried one thing, and some another: for the assembly was confused; and the greater part knew not why they had come together.

rwbs@Acts:19:33 @ And they drew Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting him forward. And Alexander beckoned with the hand, and would have made his defence to the people.

rwbs@Acts:19:34 @ But when they knew that he was a Jew, all with one voice about the space of two hours cried out, Great Diana of the Ephesians.

rwbs@Acts:19:35 @ And when the townclerk had quieted the people, he said, men of Ephesus, what man is there that knoweth not that the city of the Ephesians is a worshipper of the great goddess Diana, and of the which fell down from Jupiter? (note:)a worshipper: Gr. the temple keeper(:note)

rwbs@Acts:19:36 @ Seeing then that these things cannot be denied, ye ought to be quiet, and to do nothing rashly.

rwbs@Acts:19:37 @ For ye have brought here these men, who are neither robbers of temples, nor yet blasphemers of your goddess.

rwbs@Acts:19:38 @ Therefore if Demetrius, and the craftsmen who are with him, have a matter against any man, the law is open, and there are deputies: let them accuse one another. (note:)the law…: or, the court days are kept(:note)

rwbs@Acts:19:39 @ But if ye enquire any thing concerning other matters, it shall be determined in a lawful assembly. (note:)lawful: or, ordinary(:note)

rwbs@Acts:19:40 @ For we are in danger to be called in question for this day’s uproar, there being no cause by which we may give an account of this riotous gathering.

rwbs@Acts:19:41 @ And when he had thus spoken, he dismissed the assembly.

rwbs@Acts:20:1 @ And after the uproar had ceased, Paul called to the disciples, and embraced, and departed to go into Macedonia.

rwbs@Acts:20:2 @ And when he had gone over those parts, and had given them much exhortation, he came into Greece,

rwbs@Acts:20:3 @ And abode three months. And when the Jews laid wait for him, as he was about to sail into Syria, he purposed to return through Macedonia.

rwbs@Acts:20:4 @ And there accompanied him into Asia Sopater of Berea; and of the Thessalonians, Aristarchus and Secundus; and Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy; and of Asia, Tychicus and Trophimus.

rwbs@Acts:20:5 @ These going before tarried for us at Troas.

rwbs@Acts:20:6 @ And we sailed away from Philippi after the days of unleavened bread, and came to them to Troas in five days; where we abode seven days.

rwbs@Acts:20:7 @ And upon the first of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul preached to them, ready to depart on the next day; and continued his speech until midnight.

rwbs@Acts:20:8 @ And there were many lights in the upper chamber, where they were gathered together.

rwbs@Acts:20:9 @ And there sat in a window a certain young man named Eutychus, having fallen into a deep sleep: and as Paul was long preaching, he sunk down with sleep, and fell from the third loft, and was taken up dead.

rwbs@Acts:20:10 @ And Paul went down, and fell on him, and embracing said, Trouble not yourselves; for his life is in him.

rwbs@Acts:20:11 @ When he had come up again, and had broken bread, and eaten, and talked a long while, even till break of day, so he departed.

rwbs@Acts:20:12 @ And they brought the young man alive, and were not a little comforted.

rwbs@Acts:20:13 @ And we went before to a ship, and sailed to Assos, there intending to take in Paul: for so he had appointed, intending himself to go on foot.

rwbs@Acts:20:14 @ And when he met with us at Assos, we took him in, and came to Mitylene.

rwbs@Acts:20:15 @ And we sailed from there, and came the next opposite Chios; and the next we arrived at Samos, and tarried at Trogyllium; and the next we came to Miletus.

rwbs@Acts:20:16 @ For Paul had determined to sail by Ephesus, because he would not spend the time in Asia: for he hastened, if it were possible for him, to be at Jerusalem the day of Pentecost.

rwbs@Acts:20:17 @ And from Miletus he sent to Ephesus, and called the elders of the church.

rwbs@Acts:20:18 @ And when they had come to him, he said to them, Ye know, from the first day that I came into Asia, after what manner I have been with you at all seasons,

rwbs@Acts:20:19 @ Serving the Lord with all humility of mind, and with many tears, and trials, which befell me by the lying in wait of the Jews:

rwbs@Acts:20:20 @ how I kept back nothing that was profitable, but have shown you, and have taught you publicly, and from house to house,

rwbs@Acts:20:21 @ Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.

rwbs@Acts:20:22 @ And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit to Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there:

rwbs@Acts:20:23 @ Except that the Holy Spirit testifieth in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions await me. (note:)abide me: or, wait for me(:note)

rwbs@Acts:20:24 @ But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received from the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.

rwbs@Acts:20:25 @ And now, behold, I know that ye all, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more.

rwbs@Acts:20:26 @ Therefore I testify to you this day, that I pure from the blood of all.

rwbs@Acts:20:27 @ For I have not shunned to declare to you all the counsel of God.

rwbs@Acts:20:28 @ Take heed therefore to yourselves, and to all the flock, over which the Holy Spirit hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.

rwbs@Acts:20:29 @ For I know this, that after my departure grievous wolves shall enter in among you, not sparing the flock.

rwbs@Acts:20:30 @ Also from your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.

rwbs@Acts:20:31 @ Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears.

rwbs@Acts:20:32 @ And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them who are sanctified.

rwbs@Acts:20:33 @ I have coveted no man’s silver, or gold, or apparel.

rwbs@Acts:20:34 @ Yea, ye yourselves know, that these hands have ministered to my necessities, and to them that were with me.

rwbs@Acts:20:35 @ I have shown you all things, that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.

rwbs@Acts:20:36 @ And when he had thus spoken, he kneeled down, and prayed with them all.

rwbs@Acts:20:37 @ And they all wept bitterly, and fell on Paul’s neck, and kissed him,

rwbs@Acts:20:38 @ Sorrowing most of all for the words which he spoke, that they should see his face no more. And they accompanied him to the ship.

rwbs@Acts:21:1 @ And it came to pass, that after we were separated from them, and had launched, we came with a straight course to Coos, and the following to Rhodes, and from there to Patara:

rwbs@Acts:21:2 @ And finding a ship sailing over to Phenicia, we went aboard, and set forth.

rwbs@Acts:21:3 @ Now when we had come in sight of Cyprus, we left it on the left hand, and sailed into Syria, and landed at Tyre: for there the ship was to unload her cargo.

rwbs@Acts:21:4 @ And finding disciples, we tarried there seven days: who said to Paul through the Spirit, that he should not go up to Jerusalem.

rwbs@Acts:21:5 @ And when we had come to the end of those days, we departed and went on our way; and they all accompanied us on our way, with wives and children, till out of the city: and we kneeled down on the shore, and prayed.

rwbs@Acts:21:6 @ And when we had taken our leave one of another, we took ship; and they returned home again.

rwbs@Acts:21:7 @ And when we had finished course from Tyre, we came to Ptolemais, and greeted the brethren, and abode with them one day.

rwbs@Acts:21:8 @ And the next we that were of Paul’s company departed, and came to Caesarea: and we entered into the house of Philip the evangelist, who was of the seven; and abode with him.

rwbs@Acts:21:9 @ And the same man had four daughters, virgins, who prophesied.

rwbs@Acts:21:10 @ And as we tarried many days, there came down from Judaea a certain prophet, named Agabus.

rwbs@Acts:21:11 @ And when he had come to us, he took Paul’s belt, and bound his own hands and feet, and said, Thus saith the Holy Spirit, So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man that owneth this belt, and shall deliver into the hands of the Gentiles.

rwbs@Acts:21:12 @ And when we heard these things, both we, and they of that place, besought him not to go up to Jerusalem.

rwbs@Acts:21:13 @ Then Paul answered, What mean ye to weep and to break my heart? for I am ready not to be bound only, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.

rwbs@Acts:21:14 @ And when he would not be persuaded, we ceased, saying, The will of the Lord be done.

rwbs@Acts:21:15 @ And after those days we got ready, and went up to Jerusalem.

rwbs@Acts:21:16 @ There went with us also of the disciples of Caesarea, and brought with them one Mnason of Cyprus, an early disciple, with whom we should lodge.

rwbs@Acts:21:17 @ And when we had come to Jerusalem, the brethren received us gladly.

rwbs@Acts:21:18 @ And the following Paul went in with us to James; and all the elders were present.

rwbs@Acts:21:19 @ And when he had greeted them, he declared particularly what things God had wrought among the Gentiles by his ministry.

rwbs@Acts:21:20 @ And when they heard, they glorified the Lord, and said to him, Thou seest, brother, how many thousands of Jews there are who believe; and they are all zealous of the law:

rwbs@Acts:21:21 @ And they are informed concerning thee, that thou teachest all the Jews who are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, saying that they ought not to circumcise children, neither to walk after the customs.

rwbs@Acts:21:22 @ What is it therefore? the multitude must needs come together: for they will hear that thou art come.

rwbs@Acts:21:23 @ Do therefore this that we say to thee: We have four men who have a vow on them;

rwbs@Acts:21:24 @ Take them and purify thyself with them, and pay their expenses that they may shave heads: and all may know that those things, of which they were informed concerning thee, are nothing; but thou thyself also walkest orderly, and keepest the law.

rwbs@Acts:21:25 @ As concerning the Gentiles who believe, we have written concluded that they observe no such thing, except that they keep themselves from offered to idols, and from blood, and from strangled, and from immorality.

rwbs@Acts:21:26 @ Then Paul took the men, and the next day purifying himself with them entered into the temple, to signify the accomplishment of the days of purification, until an offering should be offered for every one of them.

rwbs@Acts:21:27 @ And when the seven days were almost ended, the Jews who were from Asia, when they saw him in the temple, stirred up all the people, and laid hands on him,

rwbs@Acts:21:28 @ Crying out, Men of Israel, help: This is the man, that teacheth all every where against the people, and the law, and this place: and further hath brought Greeks also into the temple, and hath polluted this holy place.

rwbs@Acts:21:29 @ (For they had seen before with him in the city Trophimus an Ephesian, whom they supposed that Paul had brought into the temple.)

rwbs@Acts:21:30 @ And all the city was moved, and the people ran together: and they took Paul, and drew him out of the temple: and immediately the doors were shut.

rwbs@Acts:21:31 @ And as they went about to kill him, tidings came to the chief captain of the band, that all Jerusalem was in an uproar.

rwbs@Acts:21:32 @ Who immediately took soldiers and centurions, and ran down to them: and when they saw the chief captain and the soldiers, they stopped beating Paul.

rwbs@Acts:21:33 @ Then the chief captain came near, and took him, and commanded to be bound with two chains; and demanded who he was, and what he had done.

rwbs@Acts:21:34 @ And some cried one thing, some another, among the multitude: and when he could not know the certainty for the tumult, he commanded him to be carried into the barracks.

rwbs@Acts:21:35 @ And when he came upon the stairs, so it was, that he was borne by the soldiers for the violence of the people.

rwbs@Acts:21:36 @ For the multitude of the people followed, crying, Away with him.

rwbs@Acts:21:37 @ And as Paul was to be led into the barracks, he said to the chief captain, May I speak to thee? Who said, Canst thou speak Greek?

rwbs@Acts:21:38 @ Art not thou that Egyptian, who before these days madest an uproar, and leddest out into the wilderness four thousand men that were murderers?

rwbs@Acts:21:39 @ But Paul said, I am a man a Jew of Tarsus, of Cilicia, a citizen of no mean city: and, I beseech thee, permit me to speak to the people.

rwbs@Acts:21:40 @ And when he had given him permission, Paul stood on the stairs, and beckoned with the hand to the people. And when there was made a great silence, he spoke to in the Hebrew language, saying,

rwbs@Acts:22:1 @ Men, brethren, and fathers, hear ye my defence now to you.

rwbs@Acts:22:2 @ (And when they heard that he spoke to them in the Hebrew language, they kept the more silence: and he saith,)

rwbs@Acts:22:3 @ I am verily a man a Jew, born in Tarsus, in Cilicia, yet brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, taught according to the perfect manner of the law of the fathers, being zealous toward God, as ye all are this day.

rwbs@Acts:22:4 @ And I persecuted this way to the death, binding and delivering into prisons both men and women.

rwbs@Acts:22:5 @ As also the high priest doth bear me witness, and all the council of the elders: from whom also I received letters to the brethren, and went to Damascus, to bring them who were there bound to Jerusalem, to be punished.

rwbs@Acts:22:6 @ And it came to pass, that, as I was on my journey, and had come near to Damascus about noon, suddenly there shone from heaven a great light around me.

rwbs@Acts:22:7 @ And I fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to me, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?

rwbs@Acts:22:8 @ And I answered, Who art thou, Lord? And he said to me, I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom thou persecutest.

rwbs@Acts:22:9 @ And they that were with me saw indeed the light, and were afraid; but they heard not the voice of him that spoke to me.

rwbs@Acts:22:10 @ And I said, What shall I do, Lord? And the Lord said to me, Arise, and go into Damascus; and there it shall be told thee concerning all things which are appointed for thee to do.

rwbs@Acts:22:11 @ And when I could not see for the glory of that light, being led by the hand of them that were with me, I came into Damascus.

rwbs@Acts:22:12 @ And one Ananias, a devout man according to the law, having a good report of all the Jews who dwelt,

rwbs@Acts:22:13 @ Came to me, and stood, and said to me, Brother Saul, receive thy sight. And the same hour I looked up upon him.

rwbs@Acts:22:14 @ And he said, The God of our fathers hath chosen thee, that thou shouldest know his will, and see that Just One, and shouldest hear the voice of his mouth.

rwbs@Acts:22:15 @ For thou shalt be his witness to all men of what thou hast seen and heard.

rwbs@Acts:22:16 @ And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.

rwbs@Acts:22:17 @ And it came to pass, that, when I had come again to Jerusalem, even while I prayed in the temple, I was in a trance;

rwbs@Acts:22:18 @ And saw him saying to me, Make haste, and depart quickly from Jerusalem: for they will not receive thy testimony concerning me.

rwbs@Acts:22:19 @ And I said, Lord, they know that I imprisoned and beat in every synagogue them that believed on thee:

rwbs@Acts:22:20 @ And when the blood of thy martyr Stephen was shed, I also was standing by, and consenting to his death, and kept the raiment of them that slew him.

rwbs@Acts:22:21 @ And he said to me, Depart: for I will send thee far away to the Gentiles.

rwbs@Acts:22:22 @ And they hearkened to him until this word, and lifted up their voices, and said, Away with such a from the earth: for it is not fit that he should live.

rwbs@Acts:22:23 @ And as they cried out, and cast off clothes, and threw dust into the air,

rwbs@Acts:22:24 @ The chief captain commanded him to be brought into the barracks, and bade that he should be examined by scourging; that he might know for what cause they cried so against him.

rwbs@Acts:22:25 @ And as they bound him with thongs, Paul said to the centurion that stood by, Is it lawful for you to scourge a man that is a Roman, and uncondemned?

rwbs@Acts:22:26 @ When the centurion heard, he went and told the chief captain, saying, Take heed what thou doest: for this man is a Roman.

rwbs@Acts:22:27 @ Then the chief captain came, and said to him, Tell me, art thou a Roman? He said, Yea.

rwbs@Acts:22:28 @ And the chief captain answered, With a great sum I obtained this freedom. And Paul said, But I was born.

rwbs@Acts:22:29 @ Then immediately they departed from him who were about to examine him: and the chief captain also was afraid, after he knew that he was a Roman, and because he had bound him. (note:)examined him: or, tortured him(:note)

rwbs@Acts:22:30 @ On the next day, because he would have known the certainty why he was accused by the Jews, he loosed him from bands, and commanded the chief priests and all their council to appear, and brought Paul down, and set him before them.

rwbs@Acts:23:1 @ And Paul, earnestly beholding the council, said, Men, brethren, I have lived in all good conscience before God until this day.

rwbs@Acts:23:2 @ And the high priest Ananias commanded them that stood by him to strike him on the mouth.

rwbs@Acts:23:3 @ Then said Paul to him, God shall smite thee, whitewashed wall: for sittest thou to judge me according to the law, and commandest me to be smitten contrary to the law?

rwbs@Acts:23:4 @ And they that stood by said, Revilest thou God’s high priest?

rwbs@Acts:23:5 @ Then said Paul, I knew not, brethren, that he is the high priest: for it is written, Thou shalt not speak evil of the ruler of thy people.

rwbs@Acts:23:6 @ But when Paul perceived that the one part were Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, Men, brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee: concerning the hope and resurrection of the dead I am called in question.

rwbs@Acts:23:7 @ And when he had so said, there arose a dissension between the Pharisees and the Sadducees: and the multitude was divided.

rwbs@Acts:23:8 @ For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, neither angel, nor spirit: but the Pharisees confess both.

rwbs@Acts:23:9 @ And there arose a great cry: and the scribes of the Pharisees’ part arose, and contended, saying, We find no evil in this man: but if a spirit or an angel hath spoken to him, let us not fight against God.

rwbs@Acts:23:10 @ And when there arose a great dissension, the chief captain, fearing lest Paul should have been pulled in pieces by them, commanded the soldiers to go down, and to take him by force from among them, and to bring into the barracks.

rwbs@Acts:23:11 @ And the night following the Lord stood by him, and said, Be of good cheer, Paul: for as thou hast testified concerning me in Jerusalem, so must thou bear testimony also at Rome.

rwbs@Acts:23:12 @ And when it was day, certain of the Jews banded together, and bound themselves under a curse, saying that they would neither eat nor drink till they had killed Paul. (note:)under a curse: or, with an oath of execration(:note)

rwbs@Acts:23:13 @ And they were more than forty who had made this conspiracy.

rwbs@Acts:23:14 @ And they came to the chief priests and elders, and said, We have bound ourselves under a great curse, that we will eat nothing until we have slain Paul.

rwbs@Acts:23:15 @ Now therefore ye with the council signify to the chief captain that he bring him down to you to morrow, as though ye would enquire something more perfectly concerning him: and we, before he shall come near, are ready to kill him.

rwbs@Acts:23:16 @ And when the son of Paul’s sister heard of their lying in wait, he went and entered into the barracks, and told Paul.

rwbs@Acts:23:17 @ Then Paul called one of the centurions to, and said, Bring this young man to the chief captain: for he hath a certain thing to tell him.

rwbs@Acts:23:18 @ So he took him, and brought to the chief captain, and said, Paul the prisoner called me to, and asked me to bring this young man to thee, who hath something to say to thee.

rwbs@Acts:23:19 @ Then the chief captain took him by the hand, and went aside privately, and asked, What is that thou hast to tell me?

rwbs@Acts:23:20 @ And he said, The Jews have agreed to desire thee that thou wouldest bring down Paul to morrow into the council, as though they would enquire somewhat concerning him more perfectly.

rwbs@Acts:23:21 @ But do not thou yield to them: for there are of them who lie in wait for him more than forty men, who have bound themselves with an oath, that they will neither eat nor drink till they have killed him: and now they are ready, looking for a promise from thee.

rwbs@Acts:23:22 @ So the chief captain let the young man depart, and charged tell no man that thou hast shown these things to me.

rwbs@Acts:23:23 @ And he called to two centurions, saying, Make ready two hundred soldiers to go to Caesarea, and seventy horsemen, and spearmen two hundred, at the third hour of the night;

rwbs@Acts:23:24 @ And provide for beasts, that they may set Paul on, and bring safe to Felix the governor.

rwbs@Acts:23:25 @ And he wrote a letter after this manner:

rwbs@Acts:23:26 @ Claudius Lysias to the most excellent governor Felix greeting.

rwbs@Acts:23:27 @ This man was taken by the Jews, and should have been killed by them: then I came with a body of soldiers, and rescued him, having understood that he was a Roman.

rwbs@Acts:23:28 @ And when I would have known the cause for which they accused him, I brought him forth into their council:

rwbs@Acts:23:29 @ Whom I perceived to be accused of questions of their law, but to have nothing laid to his charge worthy of death or of bonds.

rwbs@Acts:23:30 @ And when it was told to me that the Jews laid wait for the man, I sent immediately to thee, and gave commandment to his accusers also to say before thee what against him. Farewell.

rwbs@Acts:23:31 @ Then the soldiers, as it was commanded them, took Paul, and brought by night to Antipatris.

rwbs@Acts:23:32 @ On the next day they left the horsemen to go with him, and returned to the barracks:

rwbs@Acts:23:33 @ Who, when they came to Caesarea, and delivered the epistle to the governor, presented Paul also before him.

rwbs@Acts:23:34 @ And when the governor had read, he asked of what province he was. And when he understood that of Cilicia;

rwbs@Acts:23:35 @ I will hear thee, said he, when thy accusers also have come. And he commanded him to be kept in Herod’s judgment hall.

rwbs@Acts:24:1 @ And after five days Ananias the high priest descended with the elders, and a certain orator Tertullus, who informed the governor against Paul.

rwbs@Acts:24:2 @ And when he was called forth, Tertullus began to accuse, saying, Seeing that by thee we enjoy great quietness, and that very worthy deeds are done to this nation by thy providence,

rwbs@Acts:24:3 @ We accept always, and in all places, most noble Felix, with all thankfulness.

rwbs@Acts:24:4 @ However, that I may not be further tedious to thee, I beseech thee that thou wouldest of thy clemency hear us a few words.

rwbs@Acts:24:5 @ For we have found this man pestilent, and a mover of sedition among all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes:

rwbs@Acts:24:6 @ Who also hath gone about to profane the temple: whom we took, and would have judged according to our law.

rwbs@Acts:24:7 @ But the chief captain Lysias came, and with great violence took out of our hands,

rwbs@Acts:24:8 @ Commanding his accusers to come to thee: by examining whom thou thyself mayest take knowledge of all these things, of which we accuse him.

rwbs@Acts:24:9 @ And the Jews also assented, saying that these things were so.

rwbs@Acts:24:10 @ Then Paul, after the governor had beckoned to him to speak, answered, Forasmuch as I know that thou hast been for many years a judge to this nation, I do the more cheerfully answer for myself:

rwbs@Acts:24:11 @ That thou mayest understand, that there are yet but twelve days since I went up to Jerusalem to worship.

rwbs@Acts:24:12 @ And they neither found me in the temple disputing with any man, neither provoking the people to sedition, neither in the synagogues, nor in the city:

rwbs@Acts:24:13 @ Neither can they prove the things of which they now accuse me.

rwbs@Acts:24:14 @ But this I confess to thee, that after the way which they call heresy, so I worship the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the law and in the prophets:

rwbs@Acts:24:15 @ And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.

rwbs@Acts:24:16 @ And in this I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void of offence toward God, and men.

rwbs@Acts:24:17 @ Now after many years I came to bring alms to my nation, and offerings.

rwbs@Acts:24:18 @ Upon which certain Jews from Asia found me purified in the temple, neither with multitude, nor with tumult.

rwbs@Acts:24:19 @ Who ought to have been here before thee, and object, if they had any thing against me.

rwbs@Acts:24:20 @ Or else let these same say, if they have found any evil doing in me, while I stood before the council,

rwbs@Acts:24:21 @ Except it is for this one thing, that I cried standing among them, Concerning the resurrection of the dead I am called in question by you this day.

rwbs@Acts:24:22 @ And when Felix heard these things, having more perfect knowledge of way, he deferred them, and said, When Lysias the chief captain shall come down, I will make a decision on your case.

rwbs@Acts:24:23 @ And he commanded a centurion to keep Paul, and to let have liberty, and that he should forbid none of his acquaintance to minister or come to him.

rwbs@Acts:24:24 @ And after certain days, when Felix came with his wife Drusilla, who was a Jewess, he sent for Paul, and heard him concerning the faith in Christ.

rwbs@Acts:24:25 @ And as he reasoned of righteousness, self–control, and judgment to come, Felix trembled, and answered, Go thy way for this time; when I have a convenient season, I will call for thee.

rwbs@Acts:24:26 @ He hoped also that money should have been given him by Paul, that he might loose him: therefore he sent for him the oftener, and communed with him.

rwbs@Acts:24:27 @ But after two years Porcius Festus came in place of Felix: and Felix, willing to show the Jews a favour, left Paul bound.

rwbs@Acts:25:1 @ Now when Festus had come into the province, after three days he went up from Caesarea to Jerusalem.

rwbs@Acts:25:2 @ Then the high priest and the chief of the Jews informed him against Paul, and besought him,

rwbs@Acts:25:3 @ And desired favour against him, that he would send for him to Jerusalem, laying wait in the way to kill him.

rwbs@Acts:25:4 @ But Festus answered, that Paul should be kept at Caesarea, and that he himself would depart shortly.

rwbs@Acts:25:5 @ Let them therefore, said he, who among you are able, go down with, and accuse this man, if there is any wickedness in him.

rwbs@Acts:25:6 @ And when he had tarried among them more than ten days, he went down to Caesarea; and the next day sitting on the judgment seat commanded Paul to be brought. (note:)more…: or, as some copies read, no more than eight or ten days(:note)

rwbs@Acts:25:7 @ And when he had come, the Jews who came down from Jerusalem stood around, and laid many and grievous complaints against Paul, which they could not prove.

rwbs@Acts:25:8 @ While he answered for himself, Neither against the law of the Jews, neither against the temple, nor yet against Caesar, have I committed any offence.

rwbs@Acts:25:9 @ But Festus, willing to do the Jews a favour, answered Paul, and said, Wilt thou go to Jerusalem, and there be judged concerning these things before me?

rwbs@Acts:25:10 @ Then said Paul, I stand at Caesar’s judgment seat, where I ought to be judged: to the Jews have I done no wrong, as thou very well knowest.

rwbs@Acts:25:11 @ For if I am an offender, or have committed any thing worthy of death, I refuse not to die: but if there is none of these things of which these accuse me, no man may deliver me to them. I appeal to Caesar.

rwbs@Acts:25:12 @ Then Festus, when he had conferred with the council, answered, Hast thou appealed to Caesar? to Caesar thou shalt go.

rwbs@Acts:25:13 @ And after certain days king Agrippa and Bernice came to Caesarea to greet Festus.

rwbs@Acts:25:14 @ And when they had been there many days, Festus declared Paul’s cause to the king, saying, There is a certain man left in bonds by Felix:

rwbs@Acts:25:15 @ About whom, when I was at Jerusalem, the chief priests and the elders of the Jews informed, desiring judgment against him.

rwbs@Acts:25:16 @ To whom I answered, It is not the manner of the Romans to deliver any man to die, before he who is accused hath the accusers face to face, and hath opportunity to answer for himself concerning the charge laid against him.

rwbs@Acts:25:17 @ Therefore, when they had come here, without any delay on the next day I sat on the judgment seat, and commanded the man to be brought forth.

rwbs@Acts:25:18 @ Against whom when the accusers stood up, they brought no accusation of such things as I supposed:

rwbs@Acts:25:19 @ But had certain questions against him of their own religion, and of one Jesus, who was dead, whom Paul affirmed to be alive.

rwbs@Acts:25:20 @ And because I was perplexed concerning such manner of questions, I asked whether he would go to Jerusalem, and there be judged concerning these matters. (note:)I doubted…: or, I was doubtful how to enquire hereof(:note)

rwbs@Acts:25:21 @ But when Paul had appealed to be reserved to the hearing of Augustus, I commanded him to be kept till I might send him to Caesar. (note:)hearing: or, judgment(:note)

rwbs@Acts:25:22 @ Then Agrippa said to Festus, I would also hear the man myself. To morrow, said he, thou shalt hear him.

rwbs@Acts:25:23 @ And on the next day, when Agrippa had come, and Bernice, with great pomp, and had entered into the place of hearing, with the chief captains, and principal men of the city, at the command of Festus Paul was brought forth.

rwbs@Acts:25:24 @ And Festus said, King Agrippa, and all men who are here present with us, ye see this man, about whom all the multitude of the Jews have dealt with me, both at Jerusalem, and here, crying that he ought not to live any longer.

rwbs@Acts:25:25 @ But when I found that he had committed nothing worthy of death, and that he himself hath appealed to Augustus, I have determined to send him.

rwbs@Acts:25:26 @ Of whom I have no certain thing to write to my lord. Therefore I have brought him forth before you, and especially before thee, O king Agrippa, that, after examination had, I may have somewhat to write.

rwbs@Acts:25:27 @ For it seemeth to me unreasonable to send a prisoner, and not also to signify the charges against him.

rwbs@Acts:26:1 @ Then Agrippa said to Paul, Thou art permitted to speak for thyself. Then Paul stretched forth the hand, and answered for himself:

rwbs@Acts:26:2 @ I think myself happy, king Agrippa, because I shall answer for myself this day before thee concerning all the things of which I am accused by the Jews:

rwbs@Acts:26:3 @ Especially thee to be expert in all customs and questions which are among the Jews: therefore I beseech thee to hear me patiently.

rwbs@Acts:26:4 @ My manner of life from my youth, which was at the first among my own nation at Jerusalem, know all the Jews;

rwbs@Acts:26:5 @ Who knew me from the beginning, if they would testify, that after the most strict sect of our religion I lived a Pharisee.

rwbs@Acts:26:6 @ And now I stand and am judged for the hope of the promise made by God to our fathers:

rwbs@Acts:26:7 @ To which our twelve tribes, earnestly serving day and night, hope to come. For which hope’s sake, king Agrippa, I am accused by the Jews. (note:)day and night: Gr. night and day(:note)

rwbs@Acts:26:8 @ Why should it be thought a thing incredible with you, that God should raise the dead?

rwbs@Acts:26:9 @ I verily thought with myself, that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.

rwbs@Acts:26:10 @ Which thing I also did in Jerusalem: and many of the saints did I shut up in prison, having received authority from the chief priests; and when they were put to death, I gave my voice against.

rwbs@Acts:26:11 @ And I punished them often in every synagogue, and compelled to blaspheme; and being exceedingly mad against them, I persecuted even to foreign cities.

rwbs@Acts:26:12 @ Upon which as I went to Damascus with authority and commission from the chief priests,

rwbs@Acts:26:13 @ At noon, O king, I saw in the way a light from heaven, beyond the brightness of the sun, shining around me and them who journeyed with me.

rwbs@Acts:26:14 @ And when we had all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking to me, and saying in the Hebrew language, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? hard for thee to kick against the goads.

rwbs@Acts:26:15 @ And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest.

rwbs@Acts:26:16 @ But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared to thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of the things which thou hast seen, and of the things in which I will appear to thee;

rwbs@Acts:26:17 @ Delivering thee from the people, and the Gentiles, to whom now I send thee,

rwbs@Acts:26:18 @ To open their eyes, to turn from darkness to light, and the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them who are sanctified by faith that is in me.

rwbs@Acts:26:19 @ Upon which, O king Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision:

rwbs@Acts:26:20 @ But showed first to them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the region of Judaea, and to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, and do works fit for repentance.

rwbs@Acts:26:21 @ For these causes the Jews caught me in the temple, and went about to kill.

rwbs@Acts:26:22 @ Having therefore obtained help from God, I continue to this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying no other things than those which the prophets and Moses did say should come:

rwbs@Acts:26:23 @ That Christ should suffer, that he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and should show light to the people, and to the Gentiles.

rwbs@Acts:26:24 @ And as he was thus speaking for himself, Festus said with a loud voice, Paul, thou art beside thyself; much learning doth make thee mad.

rwbs@Acts:26:25 @ But he said, I am not mad, most noble Festus; but speak forth the words of truth and soberness.

rwbs@Acts:26:26 @ For the king knoweth of these things, before whom also I speak freely: for I am persuaded that none of these things are hidden from him; for this thing was not done in a corner.

rwbs@Acts:26:27 @ King Agrippa, believest thou the prophets? I know that thou believest.

rwbs@Acts:26:28 @ Then Agrippa said to Paul, Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian.

rwbs@Acts:26:29 @ And Paul said, I would to God, that not only thou, but also all that hear me this day, were both almost, and altogether such as I am, except these bonds.

rwbs@Acts:26:30 @ And when he had thus spoken, the king rose, and the governor, and Bernice, and they that sat with them:

rwbs@Acts:26:31 @ And when they had gone aside, they talked between themselves, saying, This man doeth nothing worthy of death or of bonds.

rwbs@Acts:26:32 @ Then said Agrippa to Festus, This man might have been set at liberty, if he had not appealed to Caesar.

rwbs@Acts:27:1 @ And when it was determined that we should sail into Italy, they delivered Paul and certain other prisoners to named Julius, a centurion of Augustus’ band.

rwbs@Acts:27:2 @ And entering into a ship of Adramyttium, we launched, meaning to sail by the coasts of Asia; Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, being with us.

rwbs@Acts:27:3 @ And the next we touched at Sidon. And Julius courteously treated Paul, and gave liberty to go to his friends to refresh himself.

rwbs@Acts:27:4 @ And when we had launched from there, we sailed under Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.

rwbs@Acts:27:5 @ And when we had sailed over the sea of Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra, of Lycia.

rwbs@Acts:27:6 @ And there the centurion found a ship of Alexandria sailing into Italy; and he put us on board.

rwbs@Acts:27:7 @ And when we had sailed slowly many days, and scarce had come off Cnidus, the wind did not permit us, we sailed under Crete, off Salmone; (note:)Crete: or, Candy(:note)

rwbs@Acts:27:8 @ And, scarcely passing it, came to a place which is called The fair havens; near which was the city Lasea.

rwbs@Acts:27:9 @ Now when much time was spent, and when sailing was now dangerous, because the fast was now already past, Paul admonished, (note:)the fast: the fast was on the tenth day of the seventh month(:note)

rwbs@Acts:27:10 @ And said to them, Sirs, I perceive that this voyage will be with harm and much damage, not only of the cargo and ship, but also of our lives. (note:)hurt: or, injury(:note)

rwbs@Acts:27:11 @ Nevertheless the centurion believed the master and the owner of the ship, more than the things which were spoken by Paul.

rwbs@Acts:27:12 @ And because the haven was not suitable to winter in, the greater part advised to depart from there also, if by any means they might attain to Phenice, to winter; an haven of Crete, and lieth toward the south west and north west.

rwbs@Acts:27:13 @ And when the south wind blew softly, supposing that they had obtained purpose, loosing, they sailed close by Crete.

rwbs@Acts:27:14 @ But not long after there arose against it a tempestuous wind, called Euroclydon. (note:)arose: or, beat(:note)

rwbs@Acts:27:15 @ And when the ship was caught, and could not bear up into the wind, we let drive.

rwbs@Acts:27:16 @ And running under a certain isle which is called Clauda, we had much work to secure the boat:

rwbs@Acts:27:17 @ Which when they had taken up, they used cables, undergirding the ship; and, fearing lest they should fall into the quicksands, struck sail, and so were driven.

rwbs@Acts:27:18 @ And we being exceedingly tossed with a tempest, the next they lightened the ship;

rwbs@Acts:27:19 @ And the third we cast out with our own hands the tackling of the ship.

rwbs@Acts:27:20 @ And when neither sun nor stars in many days appeared, and no small tempest lay on, all hope that we should be saved was then taken away.

rwbs@Acts:27:21 @ But after being long without food Paul stood forth in the midst of them, and said, Sirs, ye should have hearkened to me, and not have loosed from Crete, and to have gained this harm and loss.

rwbs@Acts:27:22 @ And now I exhort you to be of good cheer: for there shall be no loss of life among you, but of the ship.

rwbs@Acts:27:23 @ For there stood by me this night the angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve,

rwbs@Acts:27:24 @ Saying, Fear not, Paul; thou must be brought before Caesar: and, lo, God hath given thee all them that sail with thee.

rwbs@Acts:27:25 @ Therefore, sirs, be of good cheer: for I believe God, that it shall be even as it was told to me.

rwbs@Acts:27:26 @ But we must be cast upon a certain isle.

rwbs@Acts:27:27 @ But when the fourteenth night was come, as we were driven up and down in Adria, about midnight the shipmen thought that they drew near to some country;

rwbs@Acts:27:28 @ And sounded, and found twenty fathoms: and when they had gone a little further, they sounded again, and found fifteen fathoms.

rwbs@Acts:27:29 @ Then fearing lest we should fall upon rocks, they cast four anchors out of the stern, and wished for the day.

rwbs@Acts:27:30 @ And as the shipmen were about to flee out of the ship, when they had let down the boat into the sea, under pretence as though they would cast anchors out of the foreship,

rwbs@Acts:27:31 @ Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, Except these abide in the ship, ye cannot be saved.

rwbs@Acts:27:32 @ Then the soldiers cut off the ropes of the boat, and let her fall off.

rwbs@Acts:27:33 @ And while the day was coming on, Paul besought all to take food, saying, This day is the fourteenth day that ye have tarried and continued fasting, having taken nothing.

rwbs@Acts:27:34 @ Therefore I beseech you to take food: for this is for your health: for there shall not an hair fall from the head of any of you.

rwbs@Acts:27:35 @ And when he had thus spoken, he took bread, and gave thanks to God in presence of them all: and when he had broken, he began to eat.

rwbs@Acts:27:36 @ Then they were all of good cheer, and they also took food.

rwbs@Acts:27:37 @ And we were in all in the ship two hundred and seventy and six souls.

rwbs@Acts:27:38 @ And when they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, and cast the wheat into the sea.

rwbs@Acts:27:39 @ And when it was day, they knew not the land: but they discovered a certain creek with a shore, into which they purposed, if it were possible, to thrust in the ship.

rwbs@Acts:27:40 @ And when they had taken up the anchors, they committed to the sea, and loosed the rudder bands, and hoisted the mainsail to the wind, and made toward the shore. (note:)taken…: or, cut the anchors, they left them in the sea(:note)

rwbs@Acts:27:41 @ And falling into a place where two seas met, they ran the ship aground; and the bow stuck fast, and remained unmoveable, but the stern was broken with the violence of the waves.

rwbs@Acts:27:42 @ And the soldiers’ counsel was to kill the prisoners, lest any of them should swim out, and escape.

rwbs@Acts:27:43 @ But the centurion, willing to save Paul, kept them from purpose; and commanded that they who could swim should cast first, and get to land:

rwbs@Acts:27:44 @ And the rest, some on boards, and some on of the ship. And so it came to pass, that they all escaped safe to land.

rwbs@Acts:28:1 @ And when they had escaped, then they knew that the isle was called Melita.

rwbs@Acts:28:2 @ And the barbarous people showed us no little kindness: for they kindled a fire, and received us every one, because of the present rain, and because of the cold.

rwbs@Acts:28:3 @ And when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks, and laid on the fire, there came a viper out of the heat, and fastened on his hand.

rwbs@Acts:28:4 @ And when the barbarians saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said among themselves, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he hath escaped the sea, yet Vengeance alloweth not to live.

rwbs@Acts:28:5 @ And he shook off the creature into the fire, and felt no harm.

rwbs@Acts:28:6 @ Yet they looked when he should have swollen, or fallen down dead suddenly: but after they had looked a great while, and saw no harm come to him, they changed their minds, and said that he was a god.

rwbs@Acts:28:7 @ In the same quarters were possessions of the chief man of the isle, whose name was Publius; who received us, and lodged us three days courteously.

rwbs@Acts:28:8 @ And it came to pass, that the father of Publius lay sick with a fever and a bloody flux: to whom Paul entered in, and prayed, and laid his hands on him, and healed him.

rwbs@Acts:28:9 @ So when this was done, others also, who had diseases in the isle, came, and were healed:

rwbs@Acts:28:10 @ Who also honoured us with many honours; and when we departed, they supplied with such things as were necessary.

rwbs@Acts:28:11 @ And after three months we departed in a ship of Alexandria, which had wintered in the isle, whose sign was Castor and Pollux.

rwbs@Acts:28:12 @ And landing at Syracuse, we tarried three days.

rwbs@Acts:28:13 @ And from there we sailed around, and came to Rhegium: and after one day the south wind blew, and we came the next day to Puteoli:

rwbs@Acts:28:14 @ Where we found brethren, and were desired to tarry with them seven days: and so we went toward Rome.

rwbs@Acts:28:15 @ And from there, when the brethren heard of us, they came to meet us as far as Appii forum, and The three taverns: whom when Paul saw, he thanked God, and took courage.

rwbs@Acts:28:16 @ And when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard: but Paul was permitted to dwell by himself with a soldier that kept him.

rwbs@Acts:28:17 @ And it came to pass, that after three days Paul called together the chief of the Jews: and when they were assembled, he said to them, Men, brethren, though I have committed nothing against the people, or customs of our fathers, yet I was delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans.

rwbs@Acts:28:18 @ Who, when they had examined me, would have let go, because there was no cause of death in me.

rwbs@Acts:28:19 @ But when the Jews spoke against, I was constrained to appeal to Caesar; not that I had any thing to accuse my nation of.

rwbs@Acts:28:20 @ For this cause therefore have I called for you, to see, and to speak with: because that for the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain.

rwbs@Acts:28:21 @ And they said to him, We have neither received letters from Judaea concerning thee, neither have any of the brethren that came shown or spoken any harm of thee.

rwbs@Acts:28:22 @ But we desire to hear from thee what thou thinkest: for as concerning this sect, we know that every where it is spoken against.

rwbs@Acts:28:23 @ And when they had appointed him a day, there came many to him into lodging; to whom he expounded and testified the kingdom of God, persuading them concerning Jesus, both out of the law of Moses, and the prophets, from morning till evening.

rwbs@Acts:28:24 @ And some believed the things which were spoken, and some believed not.

rwbs@Acts:28:25 @ And when they agreed not among themselves, they departed, after Paul had spoken one word, Well spoke the Holy Spirit by Isaiah the prophet to our fathers,

rwbs@Acts:28:26 @ Saying, Go to this people, and say, Hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive:

rwbs@Acts:28:27 @ For the heart of this people has become dull, and their ears are hard of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with eyes, and hear with ears, and understand with heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.

rwbs@Acts:28:28 @ Be it known therefore to you, that the salvation of God is sent to the Gentiles, and they will hear it.

rwbs@Acts:28:29 @ And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, and had great dispute among themselves.

rwbs@Acts:28:30 @ And Paul dwelt two whole years in his own hired house, and received all that came in to him,

rwbs@Acts:28:31 @ Preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching those things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, no man forbidding him.
