| 17 1 | THEY NOW TRAVELLED by way of Amphipolis and Apollonia and came to Thessalonica, where there was a Jewish synagogue. | The Uproar in Thessalonica Ac.17.1-9 | Διοδεύσαντες δὲ τὴν Ἀμφίπολιν καὶ τὴν Ἀπολλωνίαν ἦλθον εἰς Θεσσαλονίκην, ὁπου ἦν συναγωγὴ τῶν Ἰουδαίων. |
|
| 2 | Following his usual practice Paul went to their meetings; and for the next three Sabbaths he argued with them, quoting texts of Scripture | | κατὰ δὲ τὸ εἰωθὸς τῷ Παύλῳ εἰσῆλθεν πρὸς αὐτοὺς καὶ ἐπὶ σάββατα τρία διελέξατο αὐτοῖς ἀπὸ τῶν γραφῶν, |
|
| 3 | which he expounded and applied to show that the Messiah had to suffer and rise from the dead. 'And this Jesus,' he said, 'whom I am proclaiming to you, is the Messiah.' | | διανοίγων καὶ παρατιθέμενος ὅτι τὸν Χριστὸν ἐδει παθεῖν καὶ ἀναστῆναι ἐκ νεκρῶν, καὶ ὅτι οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ Χριστός, ὁ Ἰησοῦς, ὃν ἐγὼ καταγγέλλω ὑμῖν. |
|
| 4 | Some of them were convinced and joined Paul and Silas; so did a great number of godfearing Gentiles and a good many influential women. Some witnesses read: a good many wives of leading men.
| | καί τινες ἐξ αὐτῶν ἐπείσθησαν καὶ προσεκληρώθησαν τῷ Παύλῳ καὶ τῷ Σιλᾷ, τῶν τε σεβομένων Ἑλλήνων πλῆθος πολὺ γυναικῶν τε τῶν πρώτων οὐκ ὀλίγαι. |
|
| 5 | But the Jews in their jealousy recruited some low fellows from the dregs of the populace, roused the rabble, and had the city in an uproar. They mobbed Jason's house, with the intention of bringing Paul and Silas before the town assembly. | | Ζηλώσαντες δὲ οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι καὶ προσλαβόμενοι τῶν ἀγοραίων ἀνδρας τινὰς πονηροὺς καὶ ὀχλοποιήσαντες ἐθορύβουν τὴν πόλιν, καὶ ἐπιστάντες τῇ οἰκίᾳ Ἰάσονος ἐζήτουν αὐτοὺς πρ οαγαγεῖν εἰς τὸν δῆμον. |
|
| 6 | Failing to find them, they dragged Jason himself and some members of the congregation before the magistrates, shouting, 'The men who have made trouble all over the world have now come here; | | μὴ εὑρόντες δὲ αὐτοὺς ἐσυρον Ἰάσονα καί τινας ἀδελφοὺς ἐπὶ τοὺς πολιτάρχας, βοῶντες ὅτι Οἱ τὴν οἰκουμένην ἀναστατώσαντες οὗτοι καὶ ἐνθάδε πάρεισιν, |
|
| 7 | and Jason has harboured them. They all flout the Emperor's laws, and assert that there is a rival king, Jesus.' | | οὓς ὑποδέδεκται Ἰάσων· καὶ οὗτοι πάντες ἀπέναντι τῶν δογμάτων Καίσαρος πράσσουσιν, βασιλέα ἑτερον λέγοντες εἶναι Ἰησοῦν. |
|
| 8 | These words caused a great commotion in the mob, which affected the magistrates also. | | ἐτάραξαν δὲ τὸν ὀχλον καὶ τοὺς πολιτάρχας ἀκούοντας ταῦτα, |
|
| 9 | They bound over Jason and the others, and let them go.
| | καὶ λαβόντες τὸ ἱκανὸν παρὰ τοῦ Ἰάσονος καὶ τῶν λοιπῶν ἀπέλυσαν αὐτούς. |
