Acts 17:7 in Context — Acts 17

5 Mais les Juifs, jaloux prirent avec eux quelques méchants hommes de la populace, provoquèrent des attroupements, et répandirent l’agitation dans la ville. Ils se portèrent à la maison de Jason, et ils cherchèrent Paul et Silas, pour les amener vers le peuple.

6 Ne les ayant pas trouvés, ils traînèrent Jason et quelques frères devant les magistrats de la ville, en criant: Ces gens, qui ont bouleversé le monde, sont aussi venus ici, et Jason les a reçus.

7 Ils agissent tous contre les édits de César, disant qu’il y a un autre roi, Jésus.

8 Par ces paroles ils émurent la foule et les magistrats,

9 qui ne laissèrent aller Jason et les autres qu’après avoir obtenu d’eux une caution.
