Acts 17:13

But when the Jews of Thessalonica ,.... The unbelieving Jews there,

had knowledge that the word of God was preached of Paul at Berea ; which they came at, either by persons that came from thence to Thessalonica, or by letters sent them:

they came thither also ; as the Jews from Antioch and Iconium came to Lystra on a like account, Acts 14:19

and stirred up the people ; the common people, the natives of the place, against the apostles; suggesting that they were wicked men, and enemies to all laws, human or divine, civil or religious.
