8 So he entered into the synagogue and[a] was speaking boldly for three months, discussing and attempting to convince[b] them[c] concerning[d] the kingdom of God. 9 But when some became hardened and were disobedient, reviling the Way before the congregation, he departed from them and[e] took away the disciples, leading discussions every day in the lecture hall of Tyrannus. 10 And this took place for two years, so that all who lived in Asia[f] heard the word of the Lord, both Jews and Greeks.
