And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples, 1Co 16:12Act 18:23-281Co 1:12Act 18:1Act 18:19-211Co 3:4-7 He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost. 1Co 6:19Act 11:15-17Gal 3:5Jhn 7:391Sa 3:7Act 19:51Co 12:1-11Act 10:44 And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John’s baptism. Act 18:251Co 12:13Act 8:16Luk 3:1-38Mat 28:19Mat 3:1-17 Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus. Act 1:5Act 11:16Jhn 1:29-34Luk 3:16-18Act 13:23-25Jhn 1:27Jhn 1:7Jhn 3:28-36 When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. Act 8:12Act 8:161Co 10:2Act 2:38Rom 6:3-41Co 1:13-15Act 10:48 And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied. Act 2:4Act 6:6Mrk 16:171Ti 5:221Co 14:1-252Ti 1:6Act 9:171Co 12:8-11 And all the men were about twelve. And he went into the synagogue, and spake boldly for the space of three months, disputing and persuading the things concerning the kingdom of God. Act 1:3Act 28:23Act 9:20-22Jud 1:3Act 13:14Act 13:46Act 14:1Act 17:1-3 But when divers were hardened, and believed not, but spake evil of that way before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated the disciples, disputing daily in the school of one Tyrannus. Act 19:23Act 18:6-8Act 9:22Pe 2:12Act 14:41Ti 6:52Pe 2:2Act 13:45-46 And this continued by the space of two years; so that all they which dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks. Act 20:312Ti 1:151Co 1:22-24Act 16:6Col 3:11Gal 3:28Rom 1:16Rom 10:12 And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul: Act 5:12Mrk 16:17-20Rom 15:18-19Heb 2:4Act 16:18Act 8:13Gal 3:5Act 15:12 So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them. Act 5:152Ki 13:20-21Mrk 16:172Ki 4:29-31
¶ Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth. Mat 12:27Mrk 9:38Luk 11:19Act 8:18-19Luk 9:49Mrk 5:71Ki 22:16Mat 26:63 And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, and chief of the priests, which did so. And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye? Act 16:17-18Luk 4:33-35Mrk 1:34Mrk 5:9-13Mrk 1:24Luk 8:28-32Mat 8:29-31Gen 3:1-5 And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded. Luk 8:29Mrk 5:3-4Luk 8:35Mrk 5:15 And this was known to all the Jews and Greeks also dwelling at Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified. 2Th 1:122Th 3:1Act 13:12Act 5:11Act 5:5Php 1:20Php 2:9-111Sa 6:20 And many that believed came, and confessed, and shewed their deeds. Rom 10:10Mat 3:6Psa 32:51Jn 1:9Ezk 16:63Ezk 36:31Jer 3:13Job 33:27-28 Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together, and burned them before all men: and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver. Act 13:8Deu 7:25-26Exo 32:20Gen 35:4Isa 2:20-21Act 13:6Act 8:9-11Dan 2:2 So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed. Act 12:24Act 6:7Isa 55:112Th 3:1
¶ After these things were ended, Paul purposed in the spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, After I have been there, I must also see Rome. Act 20:22Act 20:16Act 23:11Act 18:21Gal 2:1Rom 1:131Co 16:51Th 1:7 So he sent into Macedonia two of them that ministered unto him, Timotheus and Erastus; but he himself stayed in Asia for a season. 2Ti 4:20Rom 16:23Act 13:5Act 16:1Act 16:3Act 16:9-10Act 18:5Act 19:10 And the same time there arose no small stir about that way. Act 19:9Act 24:222Co 1:8-10Act 24:14Act 9:22Co 6:9Act 18:26Act 22:4 For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, which made silver shrines for Diana, brought no small gain unto the craftsmen; 1Ti 6:9-10Act 16:16Act 16:19Act 19:27-28Act 19:34-35Isa 56:11-12 Whom he called together with the workmen of like occupation, and said, Sirs, ye know that by this craft we have our wealth. Act 16:19Hos 12:7-82Pe 2:3Hos 4:8Rev 18:11-19Rev 18:3 Moreover ye see and hear, that not alone at Ephesus, but almost throughout all Asia, this Paul hath persuaded and turned away much people, saying that they be no gods, which are made with hands: 1Co 8:4Act 17:29Isa 44:10-20Act 14:15Act 19:10Deu 4:28Rev 9:201Co 10:19-20 So that not only this our craft is in danger to be set at nought; but also that the temple of the great goddess Diana should be despised, and her magnificence should be destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worshippeth. Zep 2:111Ti 6:51Jn 5:19Act 19:21Mat 23:13Rev 13:3Rev 13:8 And when they heard these sayings, they were full of wrath, and cried out, saying, Great is Diana of the Ephesians. Rev 13:4Rev 17:131Ki 18:26-291Sa 5:3-5Act 16:19-24Act 18:19Act 19:34-35Act 21:28-31 And the whole city was filled with confusion: and having caught Gaius and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul’s companions in travel, they rushed with one accord into the theatre. Act 20:4Act 27:2Col 4:10Phm 1:241Co 1:141Co 4:9Act 19:22Act 21:30 And when Paul would have entered in unto the people, the disciples suffered him not. Act 21:392Sa 18:2-32Sa 21:17Act 14:14-18Act 17:22-31 And certain of the chief of Asia, which were his friends, sent unto him, desiring him that he would not adventure himself into the theatre. Act 19:10Act 16:6Act 21:12Pro 16:7 Some therefore cried one thing, and some another: for the assembly was confused; and the more part knew not wherefore they were come together. Act 21:34Act 19:29Act 19:40Luk 7:24-26Mat 11:7-9 And they drew Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting him forward. And Alexander beckoned with the hand, and would have made his defence unto the people. Act 12:171Ti 1:202Ti 4:14Act 13:16Act 21:40Act 24:10Act 26:1-2Luk 1:22 But when they knew that he was a Jew, all with one voice about the space of two hours cried out, Great is Diana of the Ephesians. Act 19:28Act 16:20Mat 6:7Rev 13:41Ki 18:26Act 19:26Rom 2:22 And when the townclerk had appeased the people, he said, Ye men of Ephesus, what man is there that knoweth not how that the city of the Ephesians is a worshipper of the great goddess Diana, and of the image which fell down from Jupiter? 2Th 2:10-111Ti 4:2Act 14:12-13Eph 2:12Act 18:19Act 19:26 Seeing then that these things cannot be spoken against, ye ought to be quiet, and to do nothing rashly. Pro 14:29Act 5:35-39Pro 25:8 For ye have brought hither these men, which are neither robbers of churches, nor yet blasphemers of your goddess. 2Co 6:3Rom 2:221Co 10:32Act 25:8 Wherefore if Demetrius, and the craftsmen which are with him, have a matter against any man, the law is open, and there are deputies: let them implead one another. Act 13:71Co 6:1Act 18:14Deu 17:8 But if ye enquire any thing concerning other matters, it shall be determined in a lawful assembly. For we are in danger to be called in question for this day’s uproar, there being no cause whereby we may give an account of this concourse. 1Ki 1:41Act 17:5-8Act 20:1Act 21:31Act 21:38Mat 26:5 And when he had thus spoken, he dismissed the assembly. 2Co 1:8-10Ecc 9:17Pro 15:1-2Psa 65:7
