Act 13:45, 14:2-19, 17:5, 18:6 | ESV | STEP | But when the Jews saw the crowds , they were filled with jealousy and began to contradict what was spoken by Paul , reviling him.

2 ^eBut the ^funbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles and poisoned their minds against ^gthe brothers. ^{▼▼Or brothers and sisters} 3 So they remained for a long time, speaking boldly for ⁱthe Lord, who bore witness to ^jthe word of his grace, ^kgranting signs and wonders to be done by their hands. 4 But the people of the city ^lwere divided; ^msome sided with the Jews and some with the apostles. 5 When an attempt was made by both Gentiles and Jews, with their rulers, ⁿto mistreat them and ^oto stone them, 6 they learned of it and ^pfled to ^qLystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and to the surrounding country, 7 and there they continued to preach the gospel.

Paul and Barnabas at Lystra

8 Now at Lystra there was a man sitting who could not use his feet. He was ^rcrippled from birth and had never walked. 9 He listened to Paul speaking. And Paul, looking intently at him and ^sseeing that he had faith to be made well, ^{▼▼Or be saved} 10 said in a loud voice, “Stand upright on your feet.” And he ^usprang up and began walking. 11 And when the crowds saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in Lycaonian, ^v“The gods have come down to us in the likeness of men!” 12 Barnabas they called ^wZeus, and Paul, Hermes, because he was the chief speaker. 13 And the priest of ^xZeus, whose temple was at the entrance to the city, brought oxen and garlands to the gates and ^ywanted to offer sacrifice with the crowds. 14 But when the apostles Barnabas and Paul heard of it, they ^ztore their garments and rushed out into the crowd, crying out, 15 “Men, ^aawhy are you doing these things? We also are men, ^abof like nature with you, and we bring you good news, that ^acyou should turn from these ^advain things to ^aea living God, ^afwho made the heaven and the earth and the sea and all that is in them. 16 In past generations he ^agallowed all the nations ^ahto walk in their own ways. 17 Yet ^aihe did not leave himself without witness, for he ^ajdid good by ^akgiving you rains from heaven and ^alfruitful seasons, satisfying your hearts with ^amfood and ^angladness.” 18 Even with these words they scarcely restrained the people from offering sacrifice to them.

Paul Stoned at Lystra

19 ^aoBut Jews came from Antioch and Iconium, and having persuaded the crowds, ^apthey stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city, supposing that he was dead.

Acts 17:5

5 ^aqBut the Jews ^{▼▼Greek Ioudaioi probably refers here to Jewish religious leaders, and others under their influence, in that time; also verse 13} ^aswere jealous, and taking ^atsome wicked men of the rabble, they formed a mob, set the city in an uproar, and attacked the house of Jason, seeking to bring them out to the crowd.

Acts 18:6

6 And when they opposed and reviled him, ^auhe shook out his garments and said to them, ^av“Your blood be on your own heads! ^awI am innocent. ^axFrom now on I will go to the Gentiles.”
