Acts 17:16-21 - Paul In Athens
16 Now while Paul was waiting for them at Athens, his spirit was stirred within him, when he saw the city full of idols. 17 Therefore he reasoned in the synagogue with the Jews and the devout [Greeks], and in the market daily with those that met him. 18 And some of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers also conversed with him. And some said, What doth this babbler mean to say? and others, He seemeth to be a setter forth of foreign gods; because he brought the glad tidings of Jesus and the resurrection.
19 And they took him and brought him to Mars hill, saying, May we know what this new doctrine is, of which thou speakest? 20 For thou bringest certain strange things to our ears. We would know therefore what these things mean. 21 Now all the Athenians, and the strangers residing among them, spent their leisure for nothing else but to tell or to hear something new.
