Chapter 18 After these things Paul
departed from Athens and came to Corinth,

00:06.280 --> 00:10.600
and found a certain Jew named Aquila,
born in Pontus, lately come from Italy,

00:10.980 --> 00:15.060
with his wife Priscilla, because that
Claudius had commanded all Jews to depart

00:15.060 --> 00:16.960
from Rome, and came unto them.

00:17.660 --> 00:20.760
And because he was of the same craft,
he abode with them and wrought,

00:21.100 --> 00:23.200
for by their occupation they were
tentmakers.

00:23.720 --> 00:28.100
And he reasoned in the synagogue every
Sabbath, and persuaded the Jews and the

00:28.100 --> 00:28.400
Greeks.

00:28.400 --> 00:33.380
And when Silas and Timotheus were come
from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in the

00:33.380 --> 00:37.160
spirit, and testified to the Jews that
Jesus was Christ.

00:37.720 --> 00:41.540
And when they opposed themselves,
and blasphemed, he shook his raiment,

00:41.660 --> 00:44.760
and said unto them, Your blood be upon
your own heads.

00:45.760 --> 00:46.740
I am clean.

00:47.580 --> 00:50.540
From henceforth I will go unto the
Gentiles.

00:50.540 --> 00:55.300
And he departed thence, and entered into a
certain man's house, named Justus,

00:55.580 --> 00:59.020
one that worshipped God, whose house
joined hard to the synagogue.

00:59.520 --> 01:03.780
And Crispus, the chief ruler of the
synagogue, believed on the Lord with all

01:03.780 --> 01:04.340
his house.

01:04.660 --> 01:07.940
And many of the Corinthians, hearing,
believed, and were baptized.

01:08.880 --> 01:13.980
Then spake the Lord to Paul in the night
by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak,

01:14.180 --> 01:15.520
and hold not thy peace.

01:16.380 --> 01:20.640
For I am with thee, and no man shall set
on thee to hurt thee.

01:21.340 --> 01:23.300
For I have much people in this city.

01:23.580 --> 01:27.760
And he continued there a year and six
months, teaching the word of God among

01:27.760 --> 01:28.040
them.

01:28.920 --> 01:33.620
And when Galio was the deputy of Achaia,
the Jews made insurrection with one accord

01:33.620 --> 01:37.240
against Paul, and brought him to the
judgment seat, saying, This fellow

01:37.240 --> 01:40.680
persuadeth men to worship God contrary to
the law.

01:40.680 --> 01:44.680
And when Paul was now about to open his
mouth, Galio said unto the Jews,

01:44.920 --> 01:50.760
If it were a matter of wrong or wicked
lewdness, O ye Jews, reason would that I

01:50.760 --> 01:51.480
should bear with you.

01:52.140 --> 01:57.540
But if it be a question of words and
names, and of your law, look ye to it,

01:58.000 --> 01:59.980
for I will be no judge of such matters.

02:00.320 --> 02:02.160
And he draved them from the judgment seat.

02:02.580 --> 02:05.760
Then all the Greeks took Sosthenes,
the chief ruler of the synagogue,

02:06.020 --> 02:07.900
and beat him before the judgment seat.

02:07.900 --> 02:10.700
And Galio cared for none of those things.

02:11.720 --> 02:15.740
And Paul, after this, tarried there yet a
good while, and then took his leave of the

02:15.740 --> 02:19.900
brethren, and sailed thence into Syria,
and with him Priscilla and Aquila,

02:20.260 --> 02:23.400
having shorn his head in Senchria,
for he had a vow.

02:24.140 --> 02:26.360
And he came to Ephesus, and left them
there.

02:26.900 --> 02:29.980
But he himself entered into the synagogue,
and reasoned with the Jews.

02:30.760 --> 02:34.760
When they desired him to tarry longer time
with them, he consented not, but bade them

02:34.760 --> 02:39.320
farewell, saying, I must by all means keep
this feast that cometh in Jerusalem,

02:39.820 --> 02:42.680
but I will return again unto you,
if God will.

02:42.940 --> 02:44.000
And he sailed from Ephesus.

02:44.860 --> 02:48.460
And when he had landed at Caesarea,
and gone up, and saluted the church,

02:48.720 --> 02:50.000
he went down to Antioch.

02:50.340 --> 02:54.500
And after he had spent some time there,
he departed, and went over all the country

02:54.500 --> 02:57.740
of Galatia and Phrygia in order,
strengthening all the disciples.

02:58.400 --> 03:02.860
And a certain Jew named Apollos,
born at Alexandria, an eloquent man,

03:03.020 --> 03:04.960
and mighty in the Scriptures, came to
Ephesus.

03:05.880 --> 03:09.760
This man was instructed in the way of the
Lord, and being fervent in the spirit,

03:10.120 --> 03:14.800
he spake and taught diligently the things
of the Lord, knowing only the baptism of

03:14.800 --> 03:15.160
John.

03:15.940 --> 03:20.080
And he began to speak boldly in the
synagogue, whom when Aquila and Priscilla

03:20.080 --> 03:24.480
had heard, they took him unto them,
and expounded unto him the way of God more

03:24.480 --> 03:24.900
perfectly.

03:25.560 --> 03:29.840
And when he was disposed to pass into
Achaia, the brethren wrote, exhorting the

03:29.840 --> 03:33.880
disciples to receive him, who,
when he was come, helped them much which

03:33.880 --> 03:35.040
had believed through grace.

03:35.440 --> 03:39.300
For he mightily convinced the Jews,
and that publicly, showing by the

03:39.300 --> 03:40.840
Scriptures that Jesus was Christ.
