#BibleStudy Questions on Acts Ch 27-28 from 10/13



My Sunday school class/Life Group is studying the book of Acts. We discussed these questions yesterday. I encourage you to jot your thoughts down.
I'll post some comments from the class discussion on Wednesday.

If you’d like a PDF file of the questions, email me at crd.author@gmail.com.

There is a timeline of Paul's life at the end of the post. 


Ch 28

Vv 1-10

Vv7-10 are examples of Christian acts. What are they? Who actually starts those acts? 

Ch 28

Vv 11-16
According to http://orbis.stanford.edu/, “The Fastest journey from Tyrus[Tyre] to Roma in September takes 23.4 days, covering 981 kilometers.” About how long was Paul’s trip?

Syracuse is on Sicily. Rhegium is on the tip of the Italian boot. Puteoli is over 100 miles south of Rome. Paul entered the city on the Via Appia. 

What surprises you about what you read in vv11-15?

Comment on v16.





















 We got this far this week. 


Ch 28

Vv 17-30
Who does Paul contact first when he gets to Rome?
Why would Paul speak vv17-20? How accurate is what he says?
Roman Jews want to hear more about what? Why?
What does Paul do in v23?
V24 sounds like a replay of what earlier in this book?
Vv25-27 is the same message Paul preached since his conversion. What does it set up?
Gentiles (us!) should celebrate v28. How do you think the Jews in Rome reacted?
V29 is missing from most versions of the Bible used today. Why do you think it was inserted? What does it sound like that you’ve read/studied before in Acts?
Paul lives in Rome for two years. Comment on vv30-31.


Here's a link to a great Timeline of the Apostle Paul. I recommend bookmarking it.
