After this Paul left Athens and arriv'd at Corinth: where having found a Jew nam'd Aquila, a native of Pontus, who lately came from Italy, with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had order'd all the Jews to quit Rome; he went to them: read more. and being of the same trade, he liv'd with them, and follow'd the business of tent-making. every sabbath he disputed in the synagogue, and try'd to gain upon the Jews and the Greek proselytes:

and try'd to gain upon the Jews and the Greek proselytes: and when Silas and Timothy were arriv'd from Macedonia, Paul with great concern remonstrated to the Jews, that Jesus was the Messiah: read more. but as they oppos'd him with invectives, he shook his garment, and said, "you your selves be answerable for your own destruction, I am clear: and for the future I shall address my self to the Gentiles." When he had left them, he went to the house of one Justus a proselyte to Judaism, who lived near the synagogue: however Crispus,

When he had left them, he went to the house of one Justus a proselyte to Judaism, who lived near the synagogue: however Crispus, the chief ruler of the synagogue, believed on the Lord with all his family, as well as many of the Corinthians, who heard Paul, and were baptized.

the chief ruler of the synagogue, believed on the Lord with all his family, as well as many of the Corinthians, who heard Paul, and were baptized. then the Lord said to Paul in a vision by night, "be not afraid, but speak, and be not silenc'd: read more. (since I am with thee, and no man shall lift up his hand so as to hurt thee:) for my people in this city are numerous."

but the Greeks in a body fell upon Sosthenes the chief ruler of the synagogue, and beat him before the tribunal: whilst Gallio was unconcern'd about the matter. Paul still continued a considerable time at Corinth, and then taking his leave of the brethren, he set sail for Syria, with Priscilla and Aquila, who had his head shav'd in Cenchrea upon account of a vow.

having talk'd with great freedom in the synagogue, Aquila and Priscilla, who had heard him, invited him home, and gave him a more distinct view of the gospel. and being determin'd to pass into Achaia, the brethren who advis'd him to it, writ to the disciples to receive him. when he was arrived, he was, by the divine favour, very useful to those, who had receiv'd the faith.

I thank God, I baptized none of you, except Crispus and Gaius: lest any should say, I had baptized into mine own name. read more. true, I baptized the family of Stephanas: but I don't know that I baptized any other besides.

'tis for this end I have sent you Timothy, who is my dear disciple, and a faithful christian, who will inform you how I behave my self in every church where I teach the gospel of Christ.

When I formerly writ to you, not to keep company with the vicious:

when you were Gentiles, you know how you were seduced by your leaders, to the worship of dumb idols.

You know brethren, that the family of Stephanas were the first converts of Achaia, and have made it their business to be serviceable to christian converts: to such,

I am glad that Stephanas, Fortunatus, and Achaicus are come: for what was wanting on your side, they have supplied.

But thanks be to God, who disposed Titus to be so industrious for you. for he not only complyed with my exhortation, but being more than ordinarily concern'd, he voluntarily went to you; read more. with whom I have sent one of the brethren, who is not only distinguish'd among all the churches, by his preaching the gospel,

giving thanks to the father, who has qualified you to share in that light he affords to his people:

If then you are risen with Christ, seek the things, that are above, where Christ sits at the right hand of God.

but Timothy, upon his arrival here from you, brings us the agreeable news of the perseverance of your faith and charity, that you always make honourable mention of us, and that you desire to see us as ardently as we do to see you.
