Acts 13:13-43 Paul's Sermon at Antioch in Pisidia: Jesus > Moses, David and the Law

After leaving Cyprus, Paul and Barnabus head north to the mainland of Asia Minor. In the port city of Perga they part ways with John Mark. Then, they head further north and into the mountains to reach Antioch in Pisidia -- a crossroads town with a synagogue.

 

Given the opportunity, Paul tells these Jews and God-fearers the story of Jesus:  He is a greater Moses,  He is a greater David and He is exhalted and is the Savior that the Law never could be.  The hearers were eager to hear more as our focal passage concludes.
