'Preached' in the Bible

Philip went down to a city in Samaria and proclaimed the Messiah to them.

You know the events that took place throughout Judea, beginning from Galilee after the baptism that John preached:

After some time had passed, Paul said to Barnabas, “Let’s go back and visit the brothers in every town where we have preached the message of the Lord and see how they’re doing.”

Instead, I preached to those in Damascus first, and to those in Jerusalem and in all the region of Judea, and to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, and do works worthy of repentance.
