And Paul, rising up, and beckoning with his hand said; Israelitish men, and those fearing God, hear. The God of this people Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people during their sojourn in the land of Egypt, and with a strong arm led them out of it; and when he supported them about the time of forty years in the wilderness, read more.
and having destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them the inheritance of the land about four hundred and fifty years. And after these things he gave them judges, till Samuel the prophet. And then they asked for a king: and God gave them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, forty years; and having deposed him, he raised up to them David for a king; to whom witnessing he also said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man according to my own heart, who will do all my wishes. From whose seed according to the promise he led forth Jesus, the Savior, to Israel: and John having preached the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel, before the face of his coming. And when John fulfilled his course, he said, What do you consider me to be? I am not he: but, behold, there comes one after me, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to loose. Men, brethren, sons of the race of Abraham, and those among you fearing God, unto us the word of this salvation was sent. For those dwelling in Jerusalem, and the rulers, having rejected him, condemning him, have fulfilled the voices of the prophets which are read every Sabbath; and having found no cause of death, asked Pilate that he should be executed; and when they perfected all the things which had been written concerning him, taking him down from the cross, placed him in a sepulchre. And God raised him from the dead; who appeared to those coming up with him to Jerusalem from Galilee many days, who are now his witnesses to the people. And we preach unto you the promise, which was made to the fathers, that God has fulfilled this unto our children, raising up Jesus, as in the second Psalm it has been written, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee. And because he raised him up from the dead, no longer about to return to corruption, He has thus said, I will give unto you the faithful mercies of David. Therefore He also says in another place, Thou wilt not suffer thy Holy One to see corruption. For David, indeed having served his own generation according to the will of God, went to sleep, and did see corruption: but he, whom God raised up, did not see corruption. Then let it be known unto you, men brethren, that through this one remission of sins is preached: and in him every one believing is justified from all things from which ye were not able to be justified by the law of Moses. Then beware, lest the word which has been spoken by the prophets may come upon you; Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and vanish away: because I work a work in your days, a work which you may not believe, though one may proclaim it to you. And they going out, they continued to entreat them that these words should be spoken to them on the next Sabbath. And the synagogue having been adjourned, many of the Jews and pious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas, who, speaking with them, continued to persuade them to abide in the grace of God.

And it happened unto me, having returned into Jerusalem, and while I was praying in the temple, I was in an ecstasy; and I saw Him speaking to me, Hasten, and depart quickly out of Jerusalem, because they will not receive thy testimony concerning me. And I said, Lord, they know that I was imprisoning and binding those believing on thee throughout the synagogue; and when the blood of thy martyr Stephen was shed, I was standing by, and consenting, and keeping the garments of those killing him.

But stand up, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what it behooves thee to do. And the men journeying along with him stood speechless, indeed hearing the voice, but seeing no one. And Saul arose from the ground; and his eyes being open, he saw nothing: but leading him by the hand, they led him into Damascus; and he was three days not seeing, neither did he eat nor drink. And there was a certain disciple in Damascus, Ananias by name; and the Lord said to him in a vision, Ananias. And he said, Behold, I am here, Lord. And the Lord said to him, Arising, go to the street which is called Straight, and seek a Tarsean, by name Saul, in the house of Judas; for, behold, he is praying, and he saw a man, Ananias by name, coming in, and putting his hands on him, in order that he may look up. And Ananias responded, Lord I have heard from many about this man, how much evil he has done to thy saints in Jerusalem: and he here has authority from the chief priests to bind all those calling on thy name. And the Lord said to him, Go: because he is a vessel of election to me, to bear my name both before the Gentiles, and kings, and sons of Israel: for I will show him how many things it behooves him to suffer for my name's sake. And Ananias departed, and came into the house: and putting his hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, Jesus, that appeared to you in the way in which thou didst come, hath sent me, that thou mayest look up, and he filled with the Holy Ghost. And immediately there fell from his eyes as scales: and he looked up; and having stood up, was baptized, and having received food, he was strengthened. And he was with the disciples who were in Damascus some days; and immediately he was preaching Jesus in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God. And all those hearing were astonished, and continued to say, Is not this the one laying waste those calling on this name in Jerusalem? and has come hither for this, that he may lead them bound to the chief priests. And Saul continued to be the more filled up with dynamite, and he was confounding the Jews dwelling in Damascus, proving that Jesus is the Christ.

and I felt upon the ground, and heard a voice, saying to me, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? And I responded, Who art thou, Lord?

And I said, What shall I do, Lord? And the Lord said to me, Rising up, go into Damascus; and there it shall be told thee concerning all things which have been ordained for thee to do. And when I did not see on account of the glory of that light, and being led by the hand by those journeying with me, I came into Damascus.

Moreover indeed, I thought to myself that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus the Nazarene: which I did also in Jerusalem, and shut up many of the saints in prison; and having received authority from the chief priests, and they being slain, I gave my vote against them; and throughout all the synagogues, frequently punishing them, I compelled them to blaspheme; and being exceeding mad against them, I was persecuting them even also unto foreign cities. read more.
Meanwhile journeying to Damascus with power and authority of the chief priests, I saw on the way, O king, about midday, a light from heaven above the brightness of the sun, shining around me and those traveling with me; and we all having fallen to the ground, I heard a voice speaking to me in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? it is hard for thee to kick against goads. And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou art persecuting.

When the one having separated me, from the womb of my mother, and called me through his grace, was pleased to reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the Gentiles; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood: neither did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me; but I went away into Arabia, and returned again to Damascus. read more.
Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Cephas, and remained with him fifteen days; but I saw no other of the apostles, except James the brother of the Lord. Which things moreover I write unto you, behold, before God, that I lie not. Then I went into the regions of Syria and Cilicia. But I was unknown by face to the churches of Judea which are in Christ.

2 Timothy 4:14
Alexander the coppersmith showed to me much evil: the Lord will reward him according to his works.

Acts 19:23-41
And at that time there was no small commotion concerning the way. For a certain Demetrius by name, a silversmith, making silver shrines of Diana, was bringing no small gain to the mechanics, whom having assembled and the laborers about such things, he said, Men, you know that it is from this work that prosperity is to us: read more.
and you see and hear, that not only at Ephesus, but almost throughout all Asia, that this Paul having persuaded them has turned away a great multitude, saying that there are no gods made with hands. And not only is this interest in danger to us to come into disrepute; but even the temple of the great goddess Diana to be considered for nought, and they are about even to despise the majesty of her, whom all Asia and the world worships. And hearing and being filled with rage, they continued to cry out, saying, Great is Diana of the Ephesians. And the city was filled with commotion: and they rushed of one accord into the theatre, seizing Gaius and Aristarchus, the Macedonians, the companions of Paul. And Paul wishing to go in unto the people, the disciples suffered him not; and certain ones of the Asiatic rulers, also being friends to him, having sent to him, continued to entreat him not to give himself up into the theatre. Then indeed they continued to cry out some one thing, and some another: for the church was confused; and the most of them did not know on account of what they had come together. And some from the crowd forced in Alexander, the Jews precipitating him forward; and Alexander, beckoning with his hand, wished to apologize to the people. But recognizing that he is a Jew, there was one voice from all crying out about two hours, Great is Diana of the Ephesians. And the city clerk having dismissed the multitudes, said, Ephesian men, for what one of men is there that does not know that the city of the Ephesians is a worshiper of the great goddess Diana, and of the statue having fallen down from Jupiter? Therefore these things being unquestionable, it is necessary that you become calm, and do nothing rashly. For you have led in these men, who are neither robbers of temples, nor are they blaspheming your goddess. If indeed therefore Demetrius, and the mechanics along with him, have a charge against any one, the courts are in session, and there are lawyers: let them implead one another. But if you are seeking something concerning other things, it shall be settled in the lawful church. For indeed we are in danger of prosecution for the disturbance this day, there being no cause concerning which we shall be able to give a reason for this uproar. And having said these things, he dismissed the church.

2 Corinthians 1:8
For we do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning our affliction taking place in Asia, because we were burthened exceedingly, above our power, so that we despaired even of living:


Acts 21:13

Philippians 3:7-14
Those things which were gained to me, these I counted loss for the sake of Christ. Yes truly, I even counted all things loss on account of the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for the sake of whom I suffer the loss of all things, and I consider them but excrements, that I may gain Christ, and may be found in him, not having my own righteousness, which is of law, but that which is through faith of Christ, the righteousness of God through faith: read more.
to know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; if perchance I may attain unto the resurrection which is out from the dead. Not that I already received it, or have already been made perfect: but I persevere, if I may receive that for which I have indeed been received by Christ Jesus. Brethren, I do not consider that I have yet received it; but there is one thing, indeed forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forward to those which are before, I press toward the goal unto the mark of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

And the man in whom was the evil spirit, leaping on them, domineering over both of them, prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded. And this became known to all, both Jews and Greeks, dwelling at Ephesus; and fear fell upon them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified; and many of those having believed came, confessing, and renouncing their practices. And many of those practicing curious arts, having brought their books, burnt them before all: and they estimated the price of them, and found it to be fifty thousand pieces of silver. Thus the word of the Lord increased and accumulated strength according to His power.

Who is weak, and I am not weak? who is offended, and I do not burn? But if it behooves me to glory, I will glory in those things appertaining to my infirmities.

Three times I called on the Lord concerning this, that it may depart from me. And he said to me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for power is made perfect in weakness. Therefore most delightfully I will glory the more in my infirmities, in order that the power of Christ may abide on me.

who after this way persecuted unto death, binding and committing to prison both men and women; as the high priest also, and all the eldership, witnessed me: from whom having also received letters from the brethren in Damascus, I was on my way, being about to lead them also hither into Jerusalem bound, that they might be punished. And it came to pass, while I was journeying, and nigh unto Damascus, a great light, about midday, suddenly shone from heaven around me; and I felt upon the ground, and heard a voice, saying to me, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? And I responded, Who art thou, Lord? And He said to me, I am Jesus the Nazarene, whom thou art persecuting. And those being along with me saw the light indeed, but heard not the voice of the one speaking to me. And I said, What shall I do, Lord? And the Lord said to me, Rising up, go into Damascus; and there it shall be told thee concerning all things which have been ordained for thee to do. And when I did not see on account of the glory of that light, and being led by the hand by those journeying with me, I came into Damascus. And a certain Ananias, a man godly according to the law, and of good report by all the Jews dwelling there, having come to me, and standing over me, said, Brother Saul, look up. And I at that hour looked up unto him. And he said, The God of our fathers hath chosen thee to know His will, and see the Just One, and hear the voice from His mouth; because thou shalt be a witness for Him to all men of those things which thou hast seen and heard. And now why tarriest thou? arising, be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on His name. And it happened unto me, having returned into Jerusalem, and while I was praying in the temple, I was in an ecstasy; and I saw Him speaking to me, Hasten, and depart quickly out of Jerusalem, because they will not receive thy testimony concerning me. And I said, Lord, they know that I was imprisoning and binding those believing on thee throughout the synagogue; and when the blood of thy martyr Stephen was shed, I was standing by, and consenting, and keeping the garments of those killing him. And He said to me, Go: because I will send thee far away to the Gentiles.

I have shown you all things, that it so behooveth you laboring to assist the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.


2 Corinthians 10:1
But I Paul exhort you through the meekness and gentleness of Christ, who before your face am indeed humble among you, but being absent am bold towards you:

2 Corinthians 10:10
Because they say, His letters are indeed weighty and powerful; but the presence of his body is weak, and his speech contemptible.

2 Corinthians 11:6
If indeed rude in speech, but not in knowledge; but in every thing making manifest unto you in all things.


Acts 22:30
And on the following day, wishing to know the certainty as to what he is accused of by the Jews, he loosed him, and commanded the chief priests and all the sanhedrin to come together, and leading down Paul, he placed him in their midst.

Acts 23:1-5
And Paul, looking the sanhedrim in the face, said, Men, brethren, I have lived in all good conscience before God unto this day. And the high priest Ananias commanded those standing near him to smite him in the mouth. Then Paul said to him, God is about to smite thee, thou whitewashed wall: indeed thou art sitting judging me according to the law, and dost thou command me to be smitten contrary to the law? read more.
And those standing by said, Do you revile the high priest of God? And Paul said, Brethren, I did not know that he is the high priest; for it is written, You shall not speak evil of the ruler of your people.


1 Thessalonians 2:9
For you remember, brethren, our labor and toil: night and day working, that we should burden no one of you, we preached unto you the gospel of God.

2 Thessalonians 3:8
neither did we eat bread with any one gratuitously, but with labor and toil, night and day working, that we might not burden any one of you:


Romans 11:1
Then I say, Did God cast away his people? it could not be so. For I am indeed an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.

Philippians 3:5
in circumcision the eighth day, of the race of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee;


2 Timothy 4:7-8
I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: finally there is a crown of righteousness laid up for me, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will give me in that day: not only to me, but to all those who with divine love, do love his appearing.


Acts 25:13-27
And some days having passed away, king Agrippa and Bernice came down to Caesarea, saluting Festus. And while they were spending many days there, Festus expounded to the king the matters appertaining to Paul, saying, A certain man has been left a prisoner by Felix: concerning whom, I being in Jerusalem, the chief priests and elders of the Jews appeared before me, asking condemnation against him; read more.
to whom I responded, that it is not the customs to the Romans to slay any man gratuitously, before that the accused may have his accusers face to face, and receive a place of defence concerning the charge. Then they, having come together to this place, making no delay, immediately sitting on the judgment-seat, I commanded that the man should be led forth; concerning whom his accusers standing by, brought no evil charge of those things which I supposed: but they had certain questions against him concerning their own religion, and about a certain Jesus, who is dead, whom Paul was saying that He is alive. And I, being at a loss as to the question concerning these things, asked him if he is willing to go to Jerusalem, and there to be judged concerning these things. And Paul having demanded that he should be kept for the diagnosis of Augustus, I demanded that he should be kept until I shall send him to Caesar. And Agrippa said to Festus, I myself also would wish to hear the man. He says, To-morrow you shall hear him. Then on the following day, Agrippa and Bernice having come with great pomp, and entering into the auditorium, along with the chiliarchs, and chief men of the city, and, Festus commanding, Paul was led forth. And Festus says, O king Agrippa, and all ye men present with us, you see this man, concerning whom the whole multitude of the Jews is besieging me, both at Jerusalem and here, crying out that it does not behoove him to live any longer. But I discovered that he had done nothing worthy of death, however he himself appealing to Caesar, I decided to send him. Concerning whom I have nothing definite to write to my lord; therefore I have led him to you, and especially to thee, O king Agrippa, in order that, there being an investigation, I may have something which I shall write; for it seems to me to be unreasonable, sending a prisoner, and not to signify charges against him.


2 Timothy 2:10
On account of this I endure all things for the sake of the elect, in order that they may also have the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.


Acts 18:22
and having come into Caesarea, having gone up, and saluted the church, he came down to Antioch;

Acts 9:30
And the brethren, taking cognizance, led him to Caesarea, and sent him away to Tarsus.


Acts 22:16
And now why tarriest thou? arising, be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on His name.

And immediately there fell from his eyes as scales: and he looked up; and having stood up, was baptized,


Acts 22:3
And he says, I am Jewish man, having been born in Tarsus of Cilicia, having been brought up in this city, educated at the feet of Gamaliel according to the accuracy of patristic law, being a zealot of God, as you all are this day;

Moreover indeed all the Jews know my life from my youth; being from the beginning in my nation and in Jerusalem,


Acts 14:19-23
But the Jews came from Antioch and Iconium, and having persuaded the multitudes, stoned Paul, dragged him out of the city, thinking that he was dead; but, the disciples having surrounded him, rising up, he came into the city. And on the following day he came with Barnabas into Derbe; and preaching the gospel to that city, and making many disciples, they returned into Lystra, and into Iconium, and into Antioch, read more.
strengthening the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to abide in the faith, and it behooves them through many tribulations to enter into the kingdom of God. And electing elders for them in every church, praying with fasting, they commended them to the Lord, on whom they had believed.

Acts 20:22-38
And now, behold, I go to Jerusalem bound in spirit, not knowing the things which shall come upon me in it: except that the Holy Ghost in every city witnesses to me, saying that bonds and tribulations await me. But I consider my life worthy of no consideration to myself, so as to finish my course, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to bear testimony to the gospel of the grace of God. read more.
And now, behold, I know that you all, among whom I came preaching the gospel of the kingdom, shall see my face no more. Therefore I witness to you this clay, that I am pure from the blood of all men; for I did not shrink to declare unto you all the counsel of God. Take heed to yourselves, and all the flock, over which the Holy Ghost has placed you shepherds, to shepherdise the church of God, which He bought with His own blood. I know, that after my departure grievous wolves will rise up against you, not sparing the flock; and men from you yourselves will rise up, speaking perverse things, in order to lead away disciples after them. Watch therefore, remembering, that three years night and day I ceased not admonishing you with tears. And now I commend you to God and the word of His grace, who is able to edify you, and give you an inheritance among all the sanctified. I have not sought the silver, or gold, or raiment of any one; you yourselves know, that these hands did minister to my necessities, and those along with me. I have shown you all things, that it so behooveth you laboring to assist the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He said, It is more blessed to give than to receive. And having said these things, putting down his knees along with them all, he prayed. And the weeping of all was great, and falling on the neck of Paul, they continued to kiss him copiously, being especially grieved at the word which he had spoken, that they were about to see his face no more. And they accompanied him to the ship.


Acts 18:12-18
But Gallio being proconsul of Achaia, the Jews of one accord arose up against Paul, and led him to the tribunal, saying, This one persuades men to worship God contrary to law. And Paul being about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, If it were some injustice or wicked rascality, O Jews, I would bear with you according to reason: read more.
but if there are questions about the words and name, and law appertaining to you, yourselves shall see to it; I do not wish to be judge of these things. And he drove them away from the tribunal. And all taking Sosthenes, the chief ruler of the synagogue, beat him before the tribunal; and nothing of these things was a care to Gallio. And Paul, still remaining some days, having bidden adieu to the brethren, sailed away to Syria, and along with him Priscilla and Aquila; having shorn his head in Cenchrea; for he had a vow.

Acts 28:14-16
where having found brethren, we were entreated to remain with them seven days: and thus we came into Rome. And the brethren, hearing the news concerning us, came thence to meet us at the Appian Forum and Three Taverns: whom Paul, seeing, having given thanks to God, took courage. And when we came into Rome, it was permitted to Paul to remain to himself with the soldier guarding him.


Acts 20:17-21
And having sent from Miletus into Ephesus, he called for the elders of the church. And when they came to him, he said to them, You know, that from the first day from which I came unto Asia, how I was with you all the time, serving the Lord with all humility, and tears, and temptations, which came upon me through the plots of the Jews: read more.
how I omitted nothing of those things which are profitable, that I should not declare unto you and teach you publicly and from house to house, witnessing both to Jews, and to Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.


Acts 28:17-29
And it came to pass, after three days, he called together those who were first of the Jews; and they having assembled, he said to them, I, men, brethren, having done nothing against the people, or the customs of our fathers, was committed a prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans; who judging me, were counseling to release me, because there was nothing worthy of death in me: and the Jews speaking against it, I was compelled to appeal to Caesar, not having anything for which to accuse my nation. read more.
Then for this cause I have called you, to see you, and talk to you: for on account of the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain. And they said to him, Neither have we received letters from Judea concerning you, neither has any one of the brethren coming, proclaimed or spoken anything evil concerning you. But we desire to hear from you what you think: for indeed concerning this sect, it is known to us that it is everywhere spoken against. And having appointed a day with him, many came to him into his hired house, to whom witnessing he expounded the kingdom of God, indeed persuading them concerning Jesus, both from the law of Moses, and the prophets, from morning unto evening. And some of them indeed believed the things spoken, but others continued to doubt; and they being disharmonious to one another, dispersed, Paul saying one word, that truly the Holy Ghost spoke through the prophet Isaiah to your fathers, saying, Go to this people, and say, By hearing ye shall hear, and may not understand; and seeing you shall see, and may not perceive: for the heart of this people is waxed gross, and they heard with their ears heavily, and closed their eyes; lest they may see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and turn, and I shall heal them. Therefore let it be known unto you, that this salvation of God is sent to the Gentiles, and they will hear. OMITTED TEXT


Acts 28:11-13
And after three months we embarked in an Alexandrian ship, having spent the winter in the island, dedicated to the sons of Jupiter. And having disembarked into Syracuse, we remained three days; thence having come circuitously, we arrived into Rhegium. And after one day there being a south wind, we came the second day to Puteoli,


Acts 21:17-25


Acts 20:13-16
But we, having come in advance to the ship, embarked for Assos, thence being about to take up Paul, for he had so commanded us, himself being about to go on foot. And when he met us at Assos, taking him up, we came to Mitylene. And thence having sailed away on the following day we arrived opposite Chios; and on the following day we touched at Samos, and on the next day we came into Miletus. read more.
For Paul decided to sail by Ephesus, in order that it might not be necessary for him to spend the time in Asia: for he was hastening, if it might be possible for him to be in Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost.


Acts 15:36-41
And after many days Paul said to Barnabas, Having returned let us now visit the brethren in every city in which we preached the word of the Lord, how they are doing. But Barnabas advised to take with them John, also called Mark. But Paul thought that he would not take with them, him who having departed from them from Pamphylia, and not having gone along with them into the work. read more.
But there was a paroxysm, so that they parted from one another, and Barnabas, taking Mark, sailed away into Cyprus. And Paul, having chosen Silas, went out, committed to the grace of the Lord by the brethren; and he traveled through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the churches.


Acts 17:10-12
But the brethren immediately sent away both Paul and Silas to Berea by night, who coming into the synagogue of the Jews departed; but these were more noble than those in Thessalonica, who received the word with all enthusiasm, searching the scriptures daily, if these things are so. Then indeed many of them believed, and of the noble Greek women and men, not a few;


Acts 16:16-18
And it came to pass, we going to the prayer, a certain damsel having a spirit of divination met us, who brought much gain to her masters telling fortunes. She, following Paul and us, continued to cry out, saying, These men are the servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to us the way of salvation. And she continued to do this many days. And Paul, being worn out, and turning round, said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out from her. And he came out the same hour.


Acts 21:26-33


Acts 16:19-34
And her masters seeing that the hope of their gain was gone, arresting Paul and Silas, dragged them into the forum to the rulers, and leading them to the magistrates, said, These men do exceedingly trouble our city, being Jews, and they proclaimed customs, which are not lawful for us to receive, or to do, being Romans. read more.
And the crowd stood up together against them: and the magistrates tearing off their garments, commanded the lictors to beat them with rods. And having laid many stripes on them, they cast them into prison, commanding the jailer to keep them safely: who, having received such a charge, cast them into the interior prison, and fastened their feet into the wood. But at midnight Paul and Silas, praying, continued to sing praises to God: and the prisoners heard them. And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and all the doors were immediately opened, and the bonds of all were loosed. And the jailer, being awakened, and seeing the doors of the prison open, seizing a sword, was about to kill himself, thinking that his prisoners had escaped. But Paul shouted with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are here. And having asked for a light, he sprang in, and being alarmed, he fell down before Paul and Silas, and leading them out said, Sirs, what does it behoove me to do in order that I may be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus, and thou and thy household shall be saved. And they spoke to him the word of the Lord, along with all who were in his house. And taking them that hour of the night, he washed the blood from their stripes; and he and his were baptized immediately: and leading them into his house, he set a table by them, and rejoiced throughout his house, having believed in God.


Acts 17:16-34
But Paul waiting for them in Athens, his spirit was stirred in him, seeing the city devoted to idolatry. Then indeed he spoke to the Jews, and to the worshipers in the synagogue, and to those incidentally meeting him every day in the forum. And certain ones of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers interviewed him, and some continued to say, What would this babbler wish to say? and others said, He seems to be the propagator of strange divinities: because he was preaching the gospel of Jesus, and the resurrection. read more.
And taking him, they led him to the Areopagus, saying; Are we able to know what is this new teaching, spoken by thee? For you bring certain strange things to our hearing: therefore we desire to know what these things wish to be. But all the Athenians and itinerant strangers were accustomed to devote their time to nothing else, than to tell something new, or to hear something. And Paul standing in the midst of the Areopagus, said, Athenian men, I perceive that in all things you are very religious. For going through, and seeing your devotions, I also found an altar on which it was superscribed, To THE UNKNOWN GOD. Therefore I now preach unto you Him whom you are ignorantly worshiping. God having made the world and all things which are in it, being himself Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands; neither is he worshiped by human hands, as if needing something, Himself having given life, and breath, and all things to all; and of (one) man he created every nation of men to dwell upon the whole face of the earth, having determined their predestinated times, and the boundaries of their habitation; that they should seek God, if perhaps indeed they might feel after him, and find him, though not being far from each one of you. For in him we live and move and have our being, as indeed certain ones of your own poets have said, For we are truly his offspring. Then being the offspring of God, we ought not to think that divinity is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, the invention of art and the device of man. Then indeed God winking at the times of ignorance, now commands all men everywhere to repent: as He has appointed a day, in which he is about to judge the world in righteousness by the man whom he has ordained; giving faith to all, having raised Him from the dead. And having heard the resurrection of the dead, some mocked: others said; We will hear thee concerning this even again. So Paul went out from their midst. But certain men, having adhered to him, believed; among whom was also Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman Damarias by name, and others along with them.


Acts 16:11-15
And having embarked from Troas, we sailed directly to Samothrace, and on the following day into Neapolis, and thence into Philippi, which is the first city of the Macedonian region, a colony. And we were in that city spending some days. And on the Sabbath day we went out from the gate by the river, where we were accustomed that prayer should be, and having sat down, we spoke to the women having assembled. read more.
And a certain woman Lydia by name, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, worshiping God, was hearing us: whose heart the Lord opened to give attention to the words spoken by Paul. And when she and her household were baptized, she entreated us, saying, If you have found me to be faithful to the Lord, having come into my house, abide: and she constrained us.


Acts 27:14-44
Not long afterward a typhonic wind, called Euraquilo, set in against her; and the ship having been seized, and being unable to resist the wind, having given away to it, we were borne along. And running under a certain island called Clauda, we were scarcely able to get possession of the boat: read more.
which lifting up they used helps, under-girding the ship; and fearing lest they might fall into Syrtis, lowering the gear, they were thus carried along. And we being tossed violently by the storm, they were successively making the casting out, and on the third day with their own hands they threw overboard the tackling of the ship; and neither sun nor stars appearing for many days, and there being no small tempest on us, finally all hope of saving us was taken away. And there being much fasting, Paul standing in their midst, said, O men, truly it behooved you obeying me, not to depart from Crete, and incur this injury and loss. And now I exhort you to take courage: for there will be no loss of the life of you, except the ship. For the angel of God, whose I am, and whom indeed I serve, stood by me this night, saying, Fear not, Paul; for it behooveth thee to stand before Caesar: and, behold, God has given thee all those sailing along with thee. Therefore cheer up, O men: for I believe God, that it shall be according to the manner which He has spoken to me. But it behooves us to fall upon a certain island. And when it was the fourteenth night, we being borne along in the Adriatic Sea, about the middle of the night the sailors surmised that some country was coming to them. And having sounded, they found it twenty fathoms; and moving on a short distance, and sounding again, they found it fifteen fathoms; and fearing lest they may fall out against rough places, casting four anchors from the stern, they were praying that the day should come. And the sailors seeking to escape from the ship, and lowering the boat into the sea, with a pretext as about to cast anchors from the prow, Paul said to the centurion and the soldiers, Unless these may remain in the ship, you are not able to be saved. Then the soldiers cut the ropes away from the boat, and let it fall out. But until the day was about to come, Paul exhorted all to take food, saying, Already this day you remain in a state of solicitude, the fourteenth day, receiving nothing. Therefore I exhort you to take food: for this is for your safety: for not a hair of your head shall perish. And having spoken these words, and taken bread, he gave thanks to God in the presence of all, and breaking it, began to eat. And all becoming cheerful, themselves also took food. And we were two hundred and seventy-six souls in the ship. And having been revived by the food, they lightened the ship, casting the wheat over into the sea. And when it was day, they did not recognize the land: but discovered a certain gulf having a shore, into which they determined, if possible, to thrust out the ship. And having knocked off the anchors, they left them in the sea, at the same time loosing the bands of the rudders, and raising up the main sail to the blowing wind, they made for the shore. And having fallen into a place where two seas met, they broke the ship, and indeed the prow, sticking fast, remained motionless, but the stern was torn off by the violence (of the wind). And the counsel of the soldiers was that they should kill the prisoners, lest some one, having outswum them, might escape: but the centurion, wishing to save Paul, forbade them from their counsel; and commanded that those who were able to swim, having first thrown themselves overboard, to go to the land; and the rest, some on planks, and others on some parts from the ship. And thus it came to pass that all came safe to the land.


Acts 18:18-23
And Paul, still remaining some days, having bidden adieu to the brethren, sailed away to Syria, and along with him Priscilla and Aquila; having shorn his head in Cenchrea; for he had a vow. And they arrived in Ephesus, and he left them there: and himself, having gone into the synagogue, spoke to the Jews. And they asking him to remain a longer time, he did not consent; read more.
but having bidden them adieu; and saying, I will return unto you again, God willing; he embarked from Ephesus; and having come into Caesarea, having gone up, and saluted the church, he came down to Antioch; having spent some time, he went from them, traveling consecutively through the Galatian country and Phrygia, confirming all the disciples.

And having disembarked into Syracuse, we remained three days; thence having come circuitously, we arrived into Rhegium.

Acts 17:13-15
but when the Jews from Thessalonica knew that the word of God was preached by Paul in Berea, they came thither also, agitating and stirring up the rabbles. But immediately at that time the brethren sent away Paul to travel even to the sea: and Silas and Timothy remained there. But having embarked Paul, they led him even to Athens: and receiving commandment to Silas and Timothy that they should come to him as quickly as possible, they departed from him.


Acts 19:21-22
And when these things were fulfilled, Paul purposed in spirit, having traveled through Macedonia and Achaia, to go on into Jerusalem, saying that, After I am there it behooves me also to see Rome. And having sent two of those ministering to him, Timothy and Erastus, into Macedonia, himself spent the time in Asia.


Acts 15:22
Then it seemed good to the apostles and the elders, along with the whole church, to send men chosen from them into Antioch along with Paul and Barnabas; Judas called Barsabbas, and Silas, leaders among the brethren:

Acts 15:25
it seemed good to us, being of one accord, having chosen men to send them to you along with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,


Acts 11:27-30
And during those days prophets came from Jerusalem to Antioch. And one of them by name Agabus, standing up, signified through the Spirit that there is about to be a great famine throughout the whole world: which took place under the reign of Claudius. And they determined that each one of them should send to the ministry to the brethren dwelling in Judea, as each one of the disciples was prosperous; read more.
and this they did, sending to the elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul.


Acts 14:24-28
And having come through Pisidia, they came into Pamphylia. And having spoken the word in Perge, they came down into Attalia; and thence they sailed away into Antioch, whence they had been committed to the grace of God for the work which they fulfilled. read more.
And arriving, and convening the church, they reported so many things as God did with them, and that He opened the door of faith to the Gentiles. And they spent no small time with the disciples.

And they having come from Perge, arrived into Picidian Antioch, and having come into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, they sat down. And after the reading of the law and the prophets, the chief rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, Men, brethren, if there is any word of consolation to the people in you, speak. And Paul, rising up, and beckoning with his hand said; Israelitish men, and those fearing God, hear. read more.
The God of this people Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people during their sojourn in the land of Egypt, and with a strong arm led them out of it; and when he supported them about the time of forty years in the wilderness, and having destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them the inheritance of the land about four hundred and fifty years. And after these things he gave them judges, till Samuel the prophet. And then they asked for a king: and God gave them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, forty years; and having deposed him, he raised up to them David for a king; to whom witnessing he also said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man according to my own heart, who will do all my wishes. From whose seed according to the promise he led forth Jesus, the Savior, to Israel: and John having preached the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel, before the face of his coming. And when John fulfilled his course, he said, What do you consider me to be? I am not he: but, behold, there comes one after me, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to loose. Men, brethren, sons of the race of Abraham, and those among you fearing God, unto us the word of this salvation was sent. For those dwelling in Jerusalem, and the rulers, having rejected him, condemning him, have fulfilled the voices of the prophets which are read every Sabbath; and having found no cause of death, asked Pilate that he should be executed; and when they perfected all the things which had been written concerning him, taking him down from the cross, placed him in a sepulchre. And God raised him from the dead; who appeared to those coming up with him to Jerusalem from Galilee many days, who are now his witnesses to the people. And we preach unto you the promise, which was made to the fathers, that God has fulfilled this unto our children, raising up Jesus, as in the second Psalm it has been written, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee. And because he raised him up from the dead, no longer about to return to corruption, He has thus said, I will give unto you the faithful mercies of David. Therefore He also says in another place, Thou wilt not suffer thy Holy One to see corruption. For David, indeed having served his own generation according to the will of God, went to sleep, and did see corruption: but he, whom God raised up, did not see corruption. Then let it be known unto you, men brethren, that through this one remission of sins is preached: and in him every one believing is justified from all things from which ye were not able to be justified by the law of Moses. Then beware, lest the word which has been spoken by the prophets may come upon you; Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and vanish away: because I work a work in your days, a work which you may not believe, though one may proclaim it to you.

And a plot from them being revealed to me to be against the man, I sent him to thee, having commanded his accusers also to speak in thy presence. Then indeed the soldiers, according to that which had been commanded them, taking Paul led him by night to Antipatris: And on the following day letting the cavalry go on with him, they returned to the castle.

But Paul shouted with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are here. And having asked for a light, he sprang in, and being alarmed, he fell down before Paul and Silas, and leading them out said, Sirs, what does it behoove me to do in order that I may be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus, and thou and thy household shall be saved. And they spoke to him the word of the Lord, along with all who were in his house. And taking them that hour of the night, he washed the blood from their stripes; and he and his were baptized immediately: and leading them into his house, he set a table by them, and rejoiced throughout his house, having believed in God. But it being day, the magistrates sent the lictors, saying, Send away these men. And the jailer proclaimed these words to Paul, The magistrates have sent word that you may be released: now therefore having gone out, depart in peace. But Paul said to them, Having beaten us publicly uncondemned, being Roman men, they cast us into prison, and now do they cast us out privately? for no; but having come themselves let them lead us out. And the lictors proclaimed these words to the magistrates. And hearing that they are Romans, they were alarmed; and having come they called for them, and leading them out, requested them to go away from their city. And having come out from the prison they came to Lydia, and seeing the brethren, comforted them, and departed.

But the brethren immediately sent away both Paul and Silas to Berea by night, who coming into the synagogue of the Jews departed; but these were more noble than those in Thessalonica, who received the word with all enthusiasm, searching the scriptures daily, if these things are so. Then indeed many of them believed, and of the noble Greek women and men, not a few; read more.
but when the Jews from Thessalonica knew that the word of God was preached by Paul in Berea, they came thither also, agitating and stirring up the rabbles. But immediately at that time the brethren sent away Paul to travel even to the sea: and Silas and Timothy remained there.

2 Corinthians 8:1-8
But, brethren, we make known to you the grace of God which has been given in the churches of Macedonia; because in a great trial of affliction the abundance of their joy and deep poverty abounded unto the riches of their liberality.

with much exhortation praying our favor and the fellowship of the ministry which is to the saints: and not as we hoped, but they gave themselves first to the Lord, and to us through the will of God: that we should exhort Titus, that as he formerly began it, he may indeed also complete this grace unto you. But as in every thing you abound, in faith, and in word, and knowledge, and in all zeal, and in divine love from you in us, that you may also abound in this philanthropy. I speak not according to commandment, but through the zeal of others also proving the sincerity of your divine love.

2 Corinthians 9:1-5
For indeed concerning the ministry which is to the saints, it is superfluous for me to write to you. For I know your promptitude, of which I am boasting to the Macedonians in your behalf, that Achaia was ready a year ago; and your zeal has aroused many. But I sent the brethren, in order that our boasting which is in your behalf may not be in vain in this region; in order that, as I was saying, your were ready: read more.
lest perhaps, if the Macedonians may come with me, and find you unprepared, we may be put to shame, in this confidence, (that we may say not, you).

in order that you may distinguish those things which differ; that you may be pure and without offence in the day of Christ; being filled with the fruit of righteousness, through Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God. But I wish you, brethren, to know that the affairs appertaining to me have turned out rather unto the promotion of the gospel. read more.
So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the pretorian army, and to all the rest; and many of the brethren in the Lord, being confident through my bonds, are bold to speak the word of God more fluently without fear. Some indeed through envy and strife, and some through good will, are preaching Christ: the latter from divine love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel: the former from self-seeking are proclaiming Christ insincerely, thinking that they will add affliction to my bonds. For what is it? moreover that in every place, whether in pretext or in truth, Christ is proclaimed; and I rejoice in this, yes, and I will rejoice. For I know that this will turn out to me unto salvation, through your prayer and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, according to my earnest expectation and hope, that I shall be ashamed in nothing, but with all boldness, as always, even now Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life, or by death. For Christ is my life, and death is my gain. But if to live in the flesh, this shall be to me the fruit of the work, indeed I know not what I shall ask.

For the Sadducees indeed say that there is no resurrection, neither angel, nor spirit: but the Pharisees confess both. read more.
And there was a great clamor: and certain ones of the scribes on the part of the Pharisees, rising up, continued to strive, saying, We find nothing evil in this man: but has a spirit or an angel spoken to him?
