Acts 18

Paul spends eighteen months in Corinth, working as a tentmaker with Aquila and Priscilla, preaching in synagogues and converting many including the synagogue ruler Crispus, while the Roman proconsul Gallio dismisses charges against him as an internal Jewish religious matter.[1][2][3] After this, Paul travels to Ephesus and Syria, leaving Priscilla and Aquila behind, and promises to return if God wills.[1][2]
