Paul at Ephesus

Act 19:1And it came to pass, that while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper region, came to Ephesus; and finding certain disciples,

Act 19:2He said to them, Have ye received the Holy Spirit since ye believed? And they said to him, We have not so much as heard whether there is any Holy Spirit.

Act 19:10And this continued for the space of two years; so that all they who dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.

Miracles at Ephesus

Act 19:11

Act 19:11And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul:

Act 19:12

Act 19:12So that from his body were brought to the sick, handkerchiefs, or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them.

Act 19:13

Act 19:13Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them who had evil spirits, the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth.

Act 19:14

Act 19:14And there were seven sons of one Sceva a Jew, and chief of the priests, who did so.

Act 19:15

Act 19:15And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye?

Act 19:16

Act 19:16And 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.

Act 19:17

Act 19:17And 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.

Act 19:18

Act 19:18And many that believed came, and confessed, and showed their deeds.

Act 19:19

Act 19:19Many also of them who 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 19:20

Act 19:20So mightily grew the word of God, and prevailed.

Act 19:21

Act 19:21After 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 19:22

Act 19:22So he sent into Macedonia two of them that ministered to him, Timothy and Erastus; but he himself stayed in Asia for a season.

Act 19:23

Act 19:23And the same time there arose no small stir about that way.

Act 19:24

Act 19:24For a certain man named Demetrius, a silver-smith, who made silver shrines for Diana, brought no small gain to the artificers;

Act 19:25

Act 19:25Whom he called together with the workmen of like occupation, and said, Sirs, ye know that by this craft we have our wealth:

Act 19:26

Act 19:26Moreover, ye see and hear, that not alone at Ephesus, but almost throughout all Asia, this Paul hath persuaded and turned away many people, saying, that they are no gods which are made with hands.

Act 19:27

Act 19:27So that not only this our craft is in danger to be set at naught; 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 worshipeth.

Act 19:28

Act 19:28And when they heard these sayings, they were full of wrath, and cried out, saying, Great is Diana of the Ephesians.

Act 19:29

Act 19:29And 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 theater.

Act 19:30

Act 19:30And when Paul would have entered in to the people, the disciples suffered him not.

Act 19:31

Act 19:31And certain of the chief of Asia, who were his friends, sent to him, desiring him that he would not adventure himself into the theater.

Act 19:32

Act 19:32Some therefore cried one thing, and some another: for the assembly was confused, and the greater part knew not why they had come together.

Act 19:33

Act 19:33And they drew Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting him forward. And Alexander beckoned with the hand, and would have made his defense to the people.

Act 19:34

Act 19:34But 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 19:35

Act 19:35And when the town-clerk had appeased the people, he said, Ye men of Ephesus, what man is there that knoweth not that the city of the Ephesians is a worshiper of the great goddess Diana, and of the image which fell down from Jupiter?

Act 19:36

Act 19:36Seeing then that these things cannot be contradicted, ye ought to be quiet, and to do nothing rashly.

Act 19:37

Act 19:37For ye have brought hither these men, who are neither robbers of churches, nor yet blasphemers of your goddess.

Act 19:38

Act 19:38Wherefore, if Demetrius and the artificers who are with him, have a matter against any man, the law is open, and there are deputies: let them implead one another.

Act 19:39

Act 19:39But if ye inquire any thing concerning other matters, it shall be determined in a lawful assembly.
