Acts 17:1-9 Now when they had passed through Amphipolis, they came to Apollonia, and thence to Thessalonica, where was a synagogue of the Jews.

Whiston⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Now when they had passed through Amphipolis, they came to Apollonia, and thence to Thessalonica, where was a synagogue of the Jews. ² And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them, [and] three sabbaths reasoned with them out of the scriptures, ³ Opening and alledging, that Christ must needs have suffered, and risen again from the dead: and that this Jesus whom I preach unto you is Christ. ⁴ And some of them believed, and consorted with Paul and Silas on account of their doctrine: and of the devout Greeks a great multitude, and the chief women not a few. ⁵ But the Jews who believed not, moved with envy, gathered together wicked [fellows] of the baser sort, and getting the multitude together, they set the city on an uprore, and assaulted the house of Jason, and sought to bring them out to the people. ⁶ And when they found them not, they drew Jason, and certain brethren, unto the rulers of the city, crying and saying, These that have subverted the world, are come hither also; ⁷ Whom Jason hath received: and these all do contrary to the decrees of Cesar, saying, That there is another king, Jesus. ⁸ And they troubled the multitude, and the rulers of the city, when they heard these things. ⁹ And when they had taken security of Jason, and of the others, they dismissed them.
