Acts 17:2-9

Living_Oracles(i) 2 And according to Paul's custom, he entered in among them, and discoursed to them for three Sabbaths from the scriptures; 3 opening them, and evidently showing that the Messiah ought to suffer, and to rise from the dead; and that this is the Messiah, even Jesus, whom I declare to you. 4 And some of them believed, and adhered to Paul and Silas; besides, a considerable number of the devout Greeks, and not a few of the principal women. 5 But the unbelieving Jews, filled with zeal, gathered together some mean and profligate fellows, and making a mob, threw the city into a tumult; and assaulting the house of Jason, endeavored to bring them out to the people. 6 But not finding them, they dragged Jason, and some of the brethren to the magistrates of the city, crying out, These men, that have turned the world upside down, are come hither, also; 7 and Jason has privately received them. And all these men act contrary to the decrees of Cesar, saying that there is another king, one Jesus. 8 And they alarmed the multitude and the magistrates of the city, when they heard these things. 9 And having taken security of Jason, and the rest, they dismissed them.
