Thessalonica and Berea

Paul came to Thessalonica and for three Sabbaths explained from the Scriptures that Jesus is the Christ. Some believed, but the jealous Jews stirred up the crowd and attacked Jason's house to arrest Paul. The believers then sent Paul and Silas away by night to Berea. The Bereans were eager to receive the word, examining the Scriptures daily to verify whether what Paul taught was true, and many came to believe.
