bwe Acts:17:1-9
bwe@Acts:17:1 @ Paul and Silas went through the cities of Amphipolis and Apollonia. Then they reached the town of Thessalonica. Here the Jews had a meeting place.
bwe@Acts:17:2 @ As he had done in other places, Paul went into it. On three Sabbath days he explained what was written in the holy writings.
bwe@Acts:17:3 @ He proved these things from the writings. He said. It was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise again from death. And this Jesus, whom I am talking about, is the Christ.
bwe@Acts:17:4 @ Some of the people believed him and they followed Paul and Silas. Some of them were Greek people who worshipped God. And some were leading women.
bwe@Acts:17:5 @ But some Jews did not believe, and they were jealous. So they called some of the bad men together and made a crowd. They started to fight and to make plenty of trouble and noise in the city. At Jasons house they went in by force to find Paul and Silas. They wanted to bring them outside to the people.
bwe@Acts:17:6 @ But they did not find them. So they took Jason and some of the Christian brothers to the rulers of the city. They shouted, These men have turned the world upside down. Now they have come here also.
