Stearns,
o. "Tlen Paul stood in the midst OF
Mars hill and said, Ye men of Athens /
perceive shat in all things ye are too super
ttitious," or, as in the r. ", somewhat
religious" We have passed by his farewell
to Philippi his preaching Mt Thessalonica
and Berea, and the prosecutions he endured
ut each place We now find him at Athens,
waiting for Slas and Timothy, whom he
had left at Berea His spirit is greatly stirred
by the idolat.y of the city, and in the syna-
gogue of the Jews and the market of the
city he preached Jesus and the resurrection
From the time that Jesus met him on the
way to Damascus he determined to know
nothing but Christ and Him crucfed Il
! Cor. ii, q, and the substance of his preach
ing may be gathered from this statement.
He reasoned with them out of the Scrip
lures, opening and alleging that Christ
must needs have suffered and risen again
from the dead, and that this Jesus whom |
preach unto you is Christ (Acts xvii, 2, -.
23. For rs | passed by and beheld your
| devotions | found an altar with this in
scription, To the Unknown God. Whom
| therefore We ignorauty worship Him de
clare | unto YOU" 1t would seem that in
| their many affairs to many gods they feared
| lest any should have been omitted, and
