7So Paul left the Jewish meeting place and went into a house that was next to it, and preached there. Titius Justus, the owner of the house, was a non-Jewish man who had accepted what the Jews believe.
8After that, the ruler of the Jewish meeting place, whose name was Crispus, and all of his family MTY believed in the Lord Jesus. Many other people in Corinth who listened to Paul also believed in Jesus. Then they were baptized. But there were people who still opposed Paul and his preaching.
9One night Paul had a vision in which the Lord Jesus said to him, “Do not be afraid of those who oppose you. Instead, you should continue speaking to people about me. Do not stop,
10because I will help you, and no one will be able to harm you (sg) here. Keep telling people about me, because there are many in this city who will believe in me.”
11So Paul stayed in Corinth for a year and a half, teaching people the message from God about Jesus.
12When Gallio was the Roman governor of Achaia province, the Jewish leaders SYN there got together and seized Paul. They took him before Gallio and accused him,
13saying, “This man is teaching people a false religion, leading them to worship God in ways that are contrary to our Jewish laws.”
14When Paul was about to speak MTY to defend himself, Gallio said to the Jews, “If this man had acted deceitfully or disobeyed any of our Roman laws, I would listen patiently to what you Jews want to tell me.
15However, you are merely arguing about words and names and your own Jewish laws, so you yourselves need to resolve this. I refuse to judge these things!”
16After Gallio had said that, he commanded some soldiers/guards that they expel those Jewish leaders from the courtroom.
17Then the mob outside grabbed the leader of the Jewish meeting place, Sosthenes because they considered that he was responsible for those accusations against Paul. They beat him, right there in front of the courthouse. But Gallio did nothing about it.
18Paul stayed on with the believers in Corinth for ◄many days/some time►. Then he left the believers there, and went with Priscilla and her husband Aquila. They went down to Cenchrea, a port city. There Paul had his head shaved { someone shave his head} in order to partially complete a vow that he had taken. Then they got on a ship and sailed for Syria province.
