Acts 17:11-13

¹¹The Jews that lived in Berea were happy to listen to the message about Jesus and they thought about it carefully, not like the Jews in Thessalonica. The Berea people read God’s book every day to find out if Paul’s message was true.

¹²So a lot of those Jewish people believed in Jesus, and some of the important women and men that were not Jews believed in Jesus too.

¹³But the Jews in Thessalonica heard that Paul was in Berea telling people God’s message about Jesus. Then they got up and went to Berea and made trouble for Paul, and got a lot of other people to make trouble too.
