Dual Panel1After these [things] he departed from Athens [and] went to Corinth.
2And he found a certain Jew _named_ Aquila, _a native_ of Pontus who had arrived recently from Italy _along with_ Priscilla his wife, because Claudius had ordered all the Jews to depart from Rome, [and] he went to them.
3And because [he] was practicing the same trade, he stayed with them and worked, for they were tentmakers by trade.
4And he argued in the synagogue every Sabbath, attempting to persuade both Jews and Greeks.
5Now when both Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul began to be occupied with the message, solemnly testifying to the Jews [that] the Christ was Jesus.
6And [when] they resisted and reviled [him], he shook out [his] clothes [and] said to them, "Your blood [be] on your [own] heads! I [am] guiltless! From now on I will go to the Gentiles!
7And leaving there, he entered into the house of someone _named_ Titius Justus, a worshiper of God whose house was next door to the synagogue.
8And Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord together with his whole household. And many of the Corinthians, [when they] heard about [it], believed and were baptized.
9And the Lord said to Paul by a vision in the night, "Do not be afraid, but speak and do not keep silent,
10because I am with you and no one will attack you to harm you, because many people are mine in this city.
11So he stayed a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
12Now [when] Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews rose up with one purpose against Paul and brought him before the judgment seat,
13saying, "This man is persuading people to worship God contrary to the law!
14But [when] Paul was about to open [his] mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, "If it was some crime or wicked villainy, O Jews, _I would have been justified in accepting_ your complaint.
15But if it is questions concerning a word and names and _your own law_, see to [it] yourselves! I do not wish to be a judge of these [things].
16And he drove them away from the judgment seat.
17So they all seized Sosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, [and] began beating [him] in front of the judgment seat. And none of these [things] was a concern to Gallio.
18So Paul, [after] remaining many days longer, said farewell to the brothers [and] sailed away to Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila. He shaved [his] head at Cenchrea, because he had [taken] a vow.
19So they arrived at Ephesus, and those he left behind there, but he himself entered into the synagogue [and] discussed with the Jews.
20And [when] they asked [him] to stay for a longer time, he did not give his consent,
21but saying farewell and telling [them], "I will return to you again [if] God wills," he set sail from Ephesus.
22And [when he] arrived at Caesarea, he went up and greeted the church, [and] went down to Antioch.
23And [after] spending some time [there], he departed, traveling through one [place] after another [in] the Galatian region and Phrygia, strengthening all the disciples.
24Now a certain Jew _named_ Apollos, _a native_ Alexandrian, arrived in Ephesus—an eloquent man who was well-versed in the scriptures.
25This man had been instructed [in] the way of the Lord, and being enthusiastic in spirit, he was speaking and teaching accurately the [things] about Jesus, [although he] knew only the baptism of John.
26And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue, but [when] Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him aside and explained the way of God to him more accurately.
27And [when] he wanted to cross over to Achaia, the brothers encouraged [him] [and] wrote to the disciples to welcome him. [When he] arrived, _he_ assisted greatly those who had believed through grace.
28For he was vigorously refuting the Jews in public, demonstrating through the scriptures [that] the Christ was Jesus.
