\subsection{Acts 18}
\VS{1} After these [things], having left from Athens, he came to Corinth. 
\VS{2} And having 
found [a] certain Jew by name Akylla, [born in] Ponticus, and Priskilla his wife, being 
recently come from Italy, because of Claudius having commanded all the Jews 
to be departing from Rome, he came to them, 
\VS{3} and because of practicing 
the same trade, he abided with them and he was working, for they were tent 
makers by trade. 
\VS{4} Now he was speaking in the synagogue every Sabbath, 
and he was persuading both Jews and Greeks. 
\VS{5} Now as Silas and Timothy 
came down from Macedonia, Paul was preoccupied with the word, witnessing to 
the Jews [that] the Christ is Jesus. 
\VS{6} But when they were opposing 
[themselves] and slandering [God], [Paul] having shaken out [his] garments said to them: Your blood [is] 
upon your [own] head. I, clean from it, will now go to the nations\footnote{i.e. 
the Gentiles}. 
\VS{7} And having gone from there, he came to the house of a 
certain Titus Justus by name, of [those] worshipping God, whose house was next door 
to the synagogue. 
\VS{8} Now Krispus, the chief of the synagogue, believed 
in the Lord with his whole house, and many of the Corinthians, having heard, 
were believing and were being baptized. 
\VS{9} Now the Lord said to Paul in 
[the] night during [a] vision: Be not fearing, but be speaking and be not silent. 
\VS{10} For I am with you, and no one will lay hold [of you] to do you evil, for 
many people are to me in this city. 
\VS{11} So he sat [a] year and six months 
teaching among them the word of God. 
\VS{12} Now Gallios being proconsul of 
Achaia, the Jews rose up with one purpose against Paul and brought him to 
the judgment seat, 
\VS{13} saying that: This [one] persuades men to worship God 
contrary to the law. 
\VS{14} But while Paul was [about] to be opening his mouth, 
Gallios said to the Jews: If on the one there is some injustice or wicked\fnPoneros{} 
villainy, O Jews, I would endure according to your law. 
\VS{15} But if on 
the other hand [the] issues are concerning word and names and law according to 
you, you will see [to it], for I do want to be judge of these [things]? 
\VS{16} And he drove them away from the judgment seat. 
\VS{17} But all having taken 
Sosthenes, the chief of the synagogue, they were beating him before the 
judgment seat; and none of this was [a] concern to Gallius. 
\VS{18} Now Paul 
yet abiding several days, having taken leave of the brothers, he sailed to 
Syria, and with him Priskilla and Akilla, shearing his head in Kegchrea --- 
for he had [a] vow. 
\VS{19} So they attained to Ephesus, and he left them 
there, but he having entered into the synagogue was speaking to the Jews. 
\VS{20} But while they were asking\fnErotao{} [him] to remain [a] longer time, he did not consent, 
\VS{21} but having taken leave and having said: Again will we return 
to you while God wishes [it], he was brought from Ephesus. 
\VS{22} And arrived in Caesarea, having gone up and having greeted the
assembly\fnEkklhsia{}, he went down to Antioch. 
\VS{23} And having spent some time [there] he went out, going 
through one after another the Galatik region and Phrygia, strengthening all 
the disciples.

\VS{24} Now a certain Jew, Apollo by name, born in Alexandria, [a] learned man, 
arrived in Ephesus, being able in the scriptures. 
\VS{25} This [one] was 
instructing the way of the Lord, and boiling\footnote{or ``throbbing'', 
``seething''} in the spirit, he was speaking and teaching carefully 
concerning Jesus, having known only the baptism of John. 
\VS{26} And this 
[one] was beginning to be speaking openly in the synagogue. So having heard him, 
Priskilla and Akylla took him aside, and more carefully\footnote{or 
``accurately''} explained the way of God. 
\VS{27} Now while he was wanting 
to go through to Achaia, having been impelled, the brothers wrote to the 
disciples to receive him; who having arrived, he assisted much to those 
having believed through grace. 
\VS{28} For he was vigorously refuting the 
Jews publicly, having demonstrated through the scriptures [that] Jesus is the 
Christ.
