Every Sabbath he reasoned in the synagogue, trying to persuade Jews and Greeks.

Every Sabbath day he went to the synagogue. He was trying to get both Jews and Greeks to believe in the Lord.

And he reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath, and tried to persuade Jews and Greeks.

Each Sabbath found Paul at the synagogue, trying to convince the Jews and Greeks alike.

He reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath and tried to persuade both Jews and Greeks.

And Paul was reasoning in the synagogue every Sabbath and trying to persuade Jews and Greeks.

And he reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath, and persuaded both Jews and Greeks.

And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded the Jews and the Greeks.

He addressed both Jews and Greeks in the synagogue every Sabbath, attempting to persuade them.

He reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath and persuaded Jews and Greeks.

So he reasoned in the synagogue with both Jews and God- fearing Greeks, as well as in the marketplace day by day with those who happened to be there. (niv)

Since, then, we know what it is to fear the Lord, we try to persuade others. What we are is plain to God, and I hope it is also plain to your conscience. (niv)

He went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom. He stood up to read, (niv)

When Hezekiah says,‘ The Lord our God will save us from the hand of the king of Assyria,’ he is misleading you, to let you die of hunger and thirst. (niv)

Now the Berean Jews were of more noble character than those in Thessalonica, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true. (niv)

“ This man,” they charged,“ is persuading the people to worship God in ways contrary to the law.” (niv)

Paul entered the synagogue and spoke boldly there for three months, arguing persuasively about the kingdom of God. (niv)

And you see and hear how this fellow Paul has convinced and led astray large numbers of people here in Ephesus and in practically the whole province of Asia. He says that gods made by human hands are no gods at all. (niv)

“ He said to him,‘ If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead.’” (niv)

From Perga they went on to Pisidian Antioch. On the Sabbath they entered the synagogue and sat down.After the reading from the Law and the Prophets, the leaders of the synagogue sent word to them, saying,“ Brothers, if you have a word of exhortation for the people, please speak.”Standing up, Paul motioned with his hand and said:“ Fellow Israelites and you Gentiles who worship God, listen to me!The God of the people of Israel chose our ancestors; he made the people prosper during their stay in Egypt; with mighty power he led them out of that country;for about forty years he endured their conduct in the wilderness;and he overthrew seven nations in Canaan, giving their land to his people as their inheritance.All this took about 450 years.“ After this, God gave them judges until the time of Samuel the prophet.Then the people asked for a king, and he gave them Saul son of Kish, of the tribe of Benjamin, who ruled forty years.After removing Saul, he made David their king. God testified concerning him:‘ I have found David son of Jesse, a man after my own heart; he will do everything I want him to do.’“ From this man’s descendants God has brought to Israel the Savior Jesus, as he promised.Before the coming of Jesus, John preached repentance and baptism to all the people of Israel.As John was completing his work, he said:‘ Who do you suppose I am? I am not the one you are looking for. But there is one coming after me whose sandals I am not worthy to untie.’“ Fellow children of Abraham and you God- fearing Gentiles, it is to us that this message of salvation has been sent.The people of Jerusalem and their rulers did not recognize Jesus, yet in condemning him they fulfilled the words of the prophets that are read every Sabbath.Though they found no proper ground for a death sentence, they asked Pilate to have him executed.When they had carried out all that was written about him, they took him down from the cross and laid him in a tomb.But God raised him from the dead,and for many days he was seen by those who had traveled with him from Galilee to Jerusalem. They are now his witnesses to our people.“ We tell you the good news: What God promised our ancestorshe has fulfilled for us, their children, by raising up Jesus. As it is written in the second Psalm:“‘ You are my son; today I have become your father.’God raised him from the dead so that he will never be subject to decay. As God has said,“‘ I will give you the holy and sure blessings promised to David.’So it is also stated elsewhere:“‘ You will not let your holy one see decay.’“ Now when David had served God’s purpose in his own generation, he fell asleep; he was buried with his ancestors and his body decayed.But the one whom God raised from the dead did not see decay.“ Therefore, my friends, I want you to know that through Jesus the forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you.Through him everyone who believes is set free from every sin, a justification you were not able to obtain under the law of Moses.Take care that what the prophets have said does not happen to you:“‘ Look, you scoffers, wonder and perish, for I am going to do something in your days that you would never believe, even if someone told you.’”As Paul and Barnabas were leaving the synagogue, the people invited them to speak further about these things on the next Sabbath.When the congregation was dismissed, many of the Jews and devout converts to Judaism followed Paul and Barnabas, who talked with them and urged them to continue in the grace of God.On the next Sabbath almost the whole city gathered to hear the word of the Lord.When the Jews saw the crowds, they were filled with jealousy. They began to contradict what Paul was saying and heaped abuse on him.Then Paul and Barnabas answered them boldly:“ We had to speak the word of God to you first. Since you reject it and do not consider yourselves worthy of eternal life, we now turn to the Gentiles.For this is what the Lord has commanded us:“‘ I have made you a light for the Gentiles, that you may bring salvation to the ends of the earth.’”When the Gentiles heard this, they were glad and honored the word of the Lord; and all who were appointed for eternal life believed.The word of the Lord spread through the whole region.But the Jewish leaders incited the God- fearing women of high standing and the leading men of the city. They stirred up persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled them from their region.So they shook the dust off their feet as a warning to them and went to Iconium.And the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.At Iconium Paul and Barnabas went as usual into the Jewish synagogue. There they spoke so effectively that a great number of Jews and Greeks believed. (niv)

Then Agrippa said to Paul,“ Do you think that in such a short time you can persuade me to be a Christian?” (niv)

They arranged to meet Paul on a certain day, and came in even larger numbers to the place where he was staying. He witnessed to them from morning till evening, explaining about the kingdom of God, and from the Law of Moses and from the Prophets he tried to persuade them about Jesus. (niv)

When Paul and his companions had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a Jewish synagogue.As was his custom, Paul went into the synagogue, and on three Sabbath days he reasoned with them from the Scriptures,explaining and proving that the Messiah had to suffer and rise from the dead.“ This Jesus I am proclaiming to you is the Messiah,” he said. (niv)

May God extend Japheth’s territory; may Japheth live in the tents of Shem, and may Canaan be the slave of Japheth.” (niv)
