At Antioch in Pisidia

13 Now when Paul and his party set sail from Paphos, they came to Perga in Pamphylia; and aJohn, departing from them, returned to Jerusalem.  
14 But when they departed from Perga, they came to Antioch in Pisidia, and awent into the synagogue on the Sabbath day and sat down.  
15 And aafter the reading of the Law and the Prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, “Men and brethren, if you have bany word of exhortation for the people, say on.”  
16 Then Paul stood up, and motioning with his hand said, “Men of Israel, and ayou who fear God, listen:  
17 The God of this people Israel achose our fathers, and exalted the people bwhen they dwelt as strangers in the land of Egypt, and with2 an uplifted arm He cbrought them out of it.  
18 Now afor a time of about forty years He put up with their ways in the wilderness.

Acts 13:15

And after the reading of the law and the prophets, the chief of the synagogue sent to them - The law was read over once every year, a portion of it every Sabbath: to which was added a lesson taken out of the prophets. After this was over, any one might speak to the people, on any subject he thought convenient. Yet it was a circumstance of decency which Paul and Barnabas would hardly omit, to acquaint the rulers with their desire of doing it: probably by some message before the service began.
