Acts 17:10-15 - Paul And Silas In Berea

¹⁰ That night at once the brothers sent Paul and Silas away to Berea, and on arriving there they went to the Jewish synagogue. ¹¹ The Jews there were better disposed than those in Thessalonica, for they welcomed the message with all eagerness and carried on a daily study of the Scriptures to see if Paul's message was true. ¹² Many of them came to believe, and not a few distinguished Greek women and men. ¹³ But when the Jews at Thessalonica learned that God's message had been proclaimed at Berea by Paul, they came there too to excite the masses and stir up a riot. ¹⁴ Then the brothers at once sent Paul off to the coast, while Silas and Timothy stayed on there. ¹⁵ The men who acted as Paul's bodyguard took him all the way to Athens, and then went back with orders for Silas and Timothy to come to him as soon as possible.
