New Testament

Acts 17:9-15 Modern English Version (MEV)

9. When they had taken a bail payment from Jason and the rest, they released them.

10. The brothers immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Berea. When they arrived, they went into the synagogue of the Jews.

11. These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, for they received the word with all eagerness, daily examining the Scriptures, to find out if these things were so.

12. Therefore many of them believed, including honorable Greek women and many Greek men.

13. But when the Jews of Thessalonica learned that the word of God was preached by Paul at Berea, they came there also, stirring up the crowds.

14. The brothers immediately sent Paul away to the sea. But Silas and Timothy remained there.

15. Those who escorted Paul brought him to Athens and departed with instructions for Silas and Timothy to come to him quickly.
