12 | And when Gallio was the deputy of Achaia, the Jews made insurrection with one accord against Paul, and brought him to the judgment seat, | H · G · S Gallio |
13 | Saying, This fellow persuadeth men to worship God contrary to the law. | H · G · S |
14 | And when Paul was now about to open his mouth, Gallio said unto the Jews, If it were a matter of wrong or wicked lewdness, O ye Jews, reason would that I should bear with you: | H · G · S |
15 | But if it be a question of words and names, and of your law, look ye to it; for I will be no judge of such matters. | H · G · S |
16 | And he drave them from the judgment seat. | H · G · S |

things.

19 | And he came to Ephesus, and left them there: but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews. | H · G · S |
20 | When they desired him to tarry longer time with them, he consented not; | H · G · S |
21 | But bade them farewell, saying, I must by all means keep this feast that cometh in Jerusalem: but I will return again unto you, if God will. And he sailed from Ephesus. | H · G · S |
22 | And when he had landed at Caesarea, and gone up, and saluted the church, he went down to Antioch. | H · G · S |

24 | And a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man, and mighty in the scriptures, came to Ephesus. | H · G · S |

Jews, and that publickly, shewing by the scriptures that Jesus was
Christ.
