Selected verse

But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one accord rose up against Paul and brought him before the judgment seat,

13

saying, “This man persuades men to worship God contrary to the law.”

14

But when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, “If indeed it were a matter of wrong or of wicked crime, you Jews, it would be reasonable that I should bear with you;

15

but if they are questions about words and names and your own law, look to it yourselves. For I don’t want to be a judge of these matters.”
