Acts 17:3 in Context — Acts 17

1 E viajando por Anfípolis e Apolônia, vieram a Tessalônica, onde havia uma sinagoga de judeus.

2 E Paulo, como era de [seu] costume, entrou a eles, e por três sábados argumentava com eles pelas Escrituras.

3 Declarando [-as] ,e propondo [-lhes] ,que era necessário que o Cristo morresse, e ressuscitasse dos mortos; e que ( [dizia ele] ) este Jesus é o Cristo, a quem eu vos anuncio.

4 E alguns deles creram, e se ajuntaram a Paulo e Silas; e dos gregos devotos grande multidão; e não poucas das mulheres principais.

5 Mas os judeus incrédulos, movidos de inveja, tomaram consigo alguns homens malignos dos mercados, e juntando uma multidão, tumultuaram a cidade; e atacando a casa de Jasão, procuravam trazê-los ao povo.
