Paul in Ephesus

1 And it happened that while ^aApollos was at Corinth, Paul passed ^bthrough the inland ^{▼▼Greek upper (that is, highland)} country and came to Ephesus. There he found some disciples. 2 And he said to them, ^d“Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?” And they said, “No, ^ewe have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.” 3 And he said, ^f“Into what then were you baptized?” They said, “Into ^gJohn’s baptism.” 4 And Paul said, ^h“John baptized with the baptism of repentance, telling the people ⁱto believe in the one who was to come after him, that is, Jesus.” 5 On hearing this, ^jthey were baptized in ^{▼▼Or into} the name of the Lord Jesus. 6 And ^lwhen Paul had laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and ^mthey began speaking in tongues and ⁿprophesying. 7 There were about twelve men in all.

8 And ^ohe entered the synagogue and for three months spoke boldly, reasoning and persuading them ^pabout the kingdom of God. 9 ^qBut when some became stubborn and ^rcontinued in unbelief, speaking evil of ^sthe Way before the congregation, he withdrew from them and took the disciples with him, reasoning daily in the hall of Tyrannus. ^{▼▼Some manuscripts add from the fifth hour to the tenth (that is, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.)} 10 This continued for ^utwo years, so that ^vall the residents of Asia heard the word of the Lord, both Jews and Greeks.
