Acts 17:11

Paul And Silas In Berea

¹⁰ And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming there went into the synagogue of the Jews. 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. ¹² Therefore many of them believed; also of honorable women who were Greeks, and of men, not a few.
