Acts of the Apostles 17:13

In context

11These people were more open-minded than those in Thessalonica: they welcomed the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see whether it was so. 12Many of them believed, and so did a good number of prominent Greek women and men. 13But when the Jews of Thessalonica learned that Paul was proclaiming the word of God in Berea as well, they came there too, stirring up the crowds and inciting them. 14The brothers immediately sent Paul off toward the coast, while Silas and Timothy stayed behind. 15Those escorting Paul took him as far as Athens, and then went back with instructions for Silas and Timothy to join him as soon as possible.
