and provide mounts for Paul to ride so that he may be brought safely to Felix the governor.”

Agrippa said to Paul, “In such a short time are you persuading me to become a Christian?”

They began to call Barnabas Zeus and Paul Hermes, because he was the chief speaker.

So the soldiers, in accordance with their orders, took Paul and brought him to Antipatris during the night.

When the horsemen came to Caesarea and delivered the letter to the governor, they also presented Paul to him.

Then Festus replied that Paul was being kept at Caesarea, and he himself intended to go there shortly.

Then Paul and his companions put out to sea from Paphos and came to Perga in Pamphylia, but John left them and returned to Jerusalem.

But Jews came from Antioch and Iconium, and after winning the crowds over, they stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city, presuming him to be dead.

The jailer reported these words to Paul, saying, “The magistrates have sent orders to release you. So come out now and go in peace.”

The brothers sent Paul and Silas off to Berea at once, during the night. When they arrived, they went to the Jewish synagogue.

Then the brothers sent Paul away to the coast at once, but Silas and Timothy remained in Berea.

While Apollos was in Corinth, Paul went through the inland regions and came to Ephesus. He found some disciples there

But the evil spirit replied to them, “I know about Jesus and I am acquainted with Paul, but who are you?”

He immediately took soldiers and centurions and ran down to the crowd. When they saw the commanding officer and the soldiers, they stopped beating Paul.

When morning came, the Jews formed a conspiracy and bound themselves with an oath not to eat or drink anything until they had killed Paul.

They went to the chief priests and the elders and said, “We have bound ourselves with a solemn oath not to partake of anything until we have killed Paul.

So Agrippa said to Paul, “You have permission to speak for yourself.” Then Paul held out his hand and began his defense:

When it was decided we would sail to Italy, they handed over Paul and some other prisoners to a centurion of the Augustan Cohort named Julius.

But the Jews incited the God-fearing women of high social standing and the prominent men of the city, stirred up persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and threw them out of their region.

When Paul and Barnabas had a major argument and debate with them, the church appointed Paul and Barnabas and some others from among them to go up to meet with the apostles and elders in Jerusalem about this point of disagreement.
