Bible Comments

Paul at Ephesus. After three months in the synagogue (Acts 18:19-21; Acts 18:26) Paul finds it necessary, as in other places, to leave it, and takes his followers to the lecture room of Tyrannus, where he preaches to them. D and other authorities add, from the fifth to the tenth hour, which corresponds to the time after the conclusion of business.

Acts 19:8-10

8 And he went into the synagogue, and spake boldly for the space of three months, disputing and persuading the things concerning the kingdom of God.

9 But when divers were hardened, and believed not, but spake evil of that way before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated the disciples, disputing daily in the school of one Tyrannus.

10 And this continued by the space of two years; so that all they which dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.
