AS they made their journey through Amphipolis / and §AAppolonia / they came to Thessalonica where was a synagogue of the Jews. And Paul as his manner was / went in unto them / & three sabbath days declared out of the scripture unto them / opening & alleging that Christ must needs have suffered & risen again from death / and that this Jesus was Christ / whom (said he) I preach to you. And some of them believed and came and companied with Paul and Silas: ⟨image 204⟩also of the honourable Greeks a great mu• titude / and of the chief women / not a few.

And these all do contrary to the elders of Cesar / affirming another king / one Jesus. And they troubled the people and the officers of the cite when they heard these things. And when they were sufficiently answered of Jason / & of the other / they let them goo.
