Paul in Athens
16 Now while Paul was waiting for them in Athens, his spirit was provoked within him when he[fn] observed the city was full of idols. 17 So he was discussing in the synagogue with the Jews and the God-fearing Gentiles,[fn] and in the marketplace every day with those who happened to be there. 18 And even some of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers were conversing with him, and some were saying, “What does this babbler want to say?” But others said,[fn] “He appears to be a proclaimer of foreign deities,” because he was proclaiming the good newsabout Jesus and the resurrection. 19 And they took hold of him and[fn] broughthim[fn] to the Areopagus, saying, “May we learn whatis this new teaching being proclaimed by you? 20 For you are bringing some astonishing things to our ears. Therefore we want to know what these things mean.”[fn] 21 (Now all the Athenians and the foreigners who stayed there used to spend their time in nothing else than telling something or listening to something new.)
