"From
Perga they went on to Pisidian Antioch. On the Sabbath they entered
the synagogue and sat down. After the reading from the Law and the
Prophets, the synagogue rulers sent word to them, saying,
"Brothers, if you have a message of encouragement for the people,
please speak."
Why did they sit
down in the synagogue.
Sitting down was a
sign that a Rabbi or teacher had something important to say.
