Atos 28:5 In-Context

3 Paulo ajuntou um monte de gravetos; quando os colocava no fogo, uma víbora, fugindo do calor, prendeu-se à sua mão.
4 Quando os habitantes da ilha viram a cobra agarrada na mão de Paulo, disseram uns aos outros: “Certamente este homem é assassino, pois, tendo escapado do mar, a Justiça não lhe permite viver”.
5 Mas Paulo, sacudindo a cobra no fogo, não sofreu mal nenhum.
6 Eles, porém, esperavam que ele começasse a inchar ou que caísse morto de repente, mas, tendo esperado muito tempo e vendo que nada de estranho lhe sucedia, mudaram de ideia e passaram a dizer que ele era um deus.
7 Próximo dali havia uma propriedade pertencente a Públio, o homem principal da ilha. Ele nos convidou a ficar em sua casa e, por três dias, bondosamente nos recebeu e nos hospedou.
