gltv@Acts:17:15 @ But those conducting Paul brought him as far as Athens. And receiving a command to Silas and Timothy that they come to him quickly, they departed.
gltv@Acts:17:16 @ But awaiting them in Athens, Paul's spirit was pained within him, seeing the city full of images.
gltv@Acts:17:17 @ Then, indeed, he addressed the Jews in the synagogue, and those worshiping, also in the market every day, to those happening to be there .
gltv@Acts:17:18 @ And some of the Epicureans and of the Stoics, philosophers, fell in with him. And some said, What may this chatterer wish to say? And these others , He seems to be an announcer of foreign demons (because he announced Jesus and the resurrection to them).
gltv@Acts:17:19 @ And taking hold of him, they led him to the Areopagus, saying, Are we able to know what is this new doctrine being spoken by you?
gltv@Acts:17:20 @ For you bring startling things to our ears. We are minded, then, to know what these things wish to be.
gltv@Acts:17:21 @ And all Athenians and the strangers living there have leisure for nothing else than to say and to hear newer things.
gltv@Acts:17:22 @ And standing in the middle of the Areopagus, Paul said, Men, Athenians, I see how you in everything are fearful of gods;
gltv@Acts:17:23 @ for passing through and looking up at the objects of your worship, I also found an altar on which had been written, TO AN UNKNOWN GOD. Not knowing, then, whom you worship, I make Him known to you.
gltv@Acts:17:24 @ The God who made the world and all things in it, this One being Lord of Heaven and of earth, does not dwell in handmade temples,
gltv@Acts:17:25 @ nor is served by hands of men, as having need of anything. For He is giving life and breath and all things to all.
gltv@Acts:17:26 @ And He made every nation of men of one blood, to live on all the face of the earth, ordaining fore-appointed seasons and boundaries of their dwelling,
gltv@Acts:17:27 @ to seek the Lord, if perhaps they might feel after Him and might find Him, though indeed He not being far from each one of us.
gltv@Acts:17:28 @ For in Him we live and move and exist, as also some of the poets among you have said, For we are also His offspring.
gltv@Acts:17:29 @ Then being offspring of God, we ought not to suppose that the Godhead is like gold or silver or stone, engraved by art and the imagination of man.
gltv@Acts:17:30 @ Truly, then, God overlooking the times of ignorance, now strictly commands all men everywhere to repent,
gltv@Acts:17:31 @ because He set a day in which "He is going to judge the habitable world in righteousness," by a Man whom He appointed; having given proof to all by raising Him from the dead. Psa. 9:8
gltv@Acts:17:32 @ And hearing of a resurrection of the dead, some indeed ridiculed, but said, We will hear you again concerning this.
gltv@Acts:17:34 @ But some men believed, joining themselves to him, among whom also were both Dionysius the Areopagite and a woman named Damaris, and others with them.
