'Discoursed' in the Bible

And he reasoned and debated in the synagogue every Sabbath, trying to persuade Jews and Greeks;

Then they arrived in Ephesus, and he left the others there; but he entered the synagogue and reasoned and debated with the Jews.

Now on the first day of the week (Sunday), when we were gathered together to break bread (share communion), Paul began talking with them, intending to leave the next day; and he kept on with his message until midnight.
