Acts 17:29-18:4

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

²⁹ “Since we are God’s offspring, we ought not to think that the deity is like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by the art and imagination of mortals.^{(A) 30} While God has overlooked the times of human ignorance, now he commands all people everywhere to repent,^{(B) 31} because he has fixed a day on which he will have the world judged in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed, and of this he has given assurance to all by raising him from the dead.”^(C)

³² When they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some scoffed, but others said, “We will hear you again about this.” ³³ At that point Paul left them. ³⁴ But some of them joined him and became believers, including Dionysius the Areopagite and a woman named Damaris and others with them.

Paul in Corinth

18 After this Paul^[a] left Athens and went to Corinth.^{(D) 2} There he found a Jew named Aquila from Pontus, who had recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had ordered all Jews to leave Rome. Paul^[b] went to see them,^{(E) 3} and, because he was of the same trade, he stayed with them, and they worked together—by trade they were tentmakers.^{(F) 4} Every Sabbath he would argue in the synagogue and would try to convince Jews and Greeks.^(G)
