In Pisidia; where the Jews that contradicted and blasphemed his doctrine, and envied his success, stirred up the chief of the city, both men and women, against him, and Barnabas; who persecuted them and expelled them out, of their coasts, Ac 13:45 and also at Iconium; where both Jews and Gentiles made an assault upon them, to use them ill, and stone them, Ac 14:5 and likewise at Lystra; where the apostle was stoned, and drawn out of the city, and left for dead, Ac 14:19.
