Acts 17:7-14

⁷Whom Jason hath received; and these all do contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, Jesus.

⁸And they stirred up the people, and the rulers of the city hearing these things,

⁹And having taken satisfaction of Jason and of the rest, they let them go.

¹⁰But the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea. Who, when they were come thither, went into the synagogue of the Jews.

¹¹Now these were more noble than those in Thessalonica, who received the word with all eagerness, daily searching the scriptures, whether these things were so.

¹²And many indeed of them believed, and of honourable women that were Gentiles, and of men not a few.

¹³And when the Jews of Thessalonica had knowledge that the word of God was also preached by Paul at Berea, they came thither also, stirring up and troubling the multitude.

¹⁴And then immediately the brethren sent away Paul, to go unto the sea; but Silas and Timothy remained there.
