Acts 19:35-37

The Voice

Town Clerk: My fellow citizens of Ephesus, everyone in the world knows that our great city is the caretaker of the temple of Artemis! Everyone knows that we are the home of the great statue that fell from heaven! ³⁶ Our status as the economic center of the idolmaking industry is not in danger, so please, calm down. Don’t do anything rash. ³⁷ The men whom you have seized aren’t temple robbers, nor have they blasphemed our great goddess.
