For as I passed along, and observed the objects of your worship, I found also an altar with this inscription: 'TO AN UNKNOWN GOD.' What therefore you worship in ignorance, this I announce to you.
24
The God who made the world and all things in it, he, being Lord of heaven and eretz, dwells not in temples made with hands,
25
neither is he served by men's hands, as though he needed anything, seeing he himself gives to all life and breath, and all things.
26
He made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the surface of the eretz, having determined appointed seasons, and the bounds of their habitation,
27
that they should seek the Lord, if perhaps they might reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us.
28
'For in him we live, and move, and have our being.' As some of your own poets have said, 'For we are also his offspring.'
29
Being then the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold, or silver, or stone, engraved by art and device of man.
30
The times of ignorance therefore God overlooked. But now he commands that all men everywhere should repent,
31
because he has appointed a day in which he will judge the world in righteousness by the man whom he has ordained; whereof he has given assurance to all men, in that he has raised him from the dead."
32
Now when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked; but others said, "We want to hear you yet again concerning this."
33
Thus Sha'ul went out from among them.
