Acts 17:5-9
17:5 But the Jews became jealous,
and gathering together some worthless men from the rabble in the marketplace,
they formed a mob
and set the city in an uproar.
They attacked Jason’s house,
trying to find Paul and Silas
to bring them out to the assembly.
17:6 When they did not find them, they dragged
Jason and some of the brothers before the city officials,
screaming, “These people who have stirred up trouble
throughout the world
have come here too,
17:7 and
Jason has welcomed them as guests! They
are all acting against Caesar’s
decrees, saying there is another king named
Jesus!”
17:8 They caused confusion among
the crowd and the city officials
who heard these things.
17:9 After
the city officials
had received bail
from Jason and the others, they released them.
Acts 17:13
17:13 But when the Jews from Thessalonica
heard that Paul had also proclaimed the word of God
in Berea,
they came there too, inciting
and disturbing
the crowds.
