Even by saying this it was all that they could do to keep the crowds from offering sacrifices to them.

But the masses of the town were divided; some sided with the Jews and some with the apostles. And so when there was a movement on the part of both the heathen and the Jews, along with their authorities, to insult and stone them, they became aware of it and fled to the Lycaonian towns of Lystra and Derbe, and the surrounding country, and there they continued to tell the good news.
