Asia Minor · An invitation to speak

In the synagogue, Paul tells Israel’s story and announces Jesus. Interest spreads through the city, but opposition also grows. Paul and Barnabas turn toward Gentile hearers.

Acts 13:13–52

You might be wondering...

Who are the Gentiles?

In this passage, Gentiles are people outside the Jewish people. Acts follows the message of Jesus reaching both Jewish and Gentile communities.

What happened to John Mark?

At Perga, John left the travelers and returned to Jerusalem. Acts does not explain his reason here.
