Gevurot Meyruach Hakodesh 18:1-10

Gevurot Meyruach Hakodesh 18:1-10 TOJB2011

After these things Rav Sha'ul left Athens and went to Corinth. And in Corinth Rav Sha'ul found some Messianic Jews, namely Aquila hailing from Pontus, having recently come from Italy, where Claudius ordered a decree of Jewish expulsion from Rome, and Priscilla, his isha. Rav Sha'ul went to see them. And because he had the same parnasah (livelihood), Rav Sha'ul was staying with them, and he was working with them, for they were tentmakers by trade. And Rav Sha'ul was debating in the shul every Shabbos, and he was convincing Yehudim and Yevanim. Now when both Sila and Timotiyos came down from Macedonia, Rav Sha'ul was farnumen (preoccupied) and totally absorbed with the dvar HASHEM, bearing solemn edut to the Yehudim that Yehoshua is the Moshiach. But when some began opposing Rav Sha'ul, and when they began committing Chillul HASHEM, Rav Sha'ul shook out his kaftan and said to them, The responsibility of your lot be upon your own head! For I am tahor (clean); from now on, I go to the Nations. And so Rav Sha'ul left them, and entered into the bais of a certain ish by the name Titius Justus, a yire Elohim whose bais was right next door to the shul! And Crispus, the Rosh Beit HaKnesset, came to emunah in Moshiach Adoneinu along with his entire bais; also many of the Corinthians who heard came to emunah, and were being given Moshiachʼs tevilah of teshuva. Then in the lailah, through a chazon, Adonoi said to Rav Sha'ul, Do not fear, but speak out, and do not keep silent, For I am with you, and no one will attack you to harm you; I have many people in this city.
