Acts 18:20

"He came to Ephesus, and he left them there; but he himself entered into the synagogue and reasoned with the Jews."

Key Reflection

Paul's actions in Ephesus illustrate his strategy of engaging the local Jewish community first by entering their synagogue to share the gospel, highlighting the importance of dialogue and outreach within existing religious structures before moving on to broader audiences. This approach underscores Paul’s commitment to building upon the foundations of Judaism as he preached the message of Christ.
