2 And he found a certain Jew named aAquila, born in Pontus, who had recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla (because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to depart from Rome); and he came to them.
3 So, because he was of the same trade, he stayed with them aand worked; for by occupation they were tentmakers.
4aAnd he reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath, and persuaded both Jews and Greeks.
5aWhen Silas and Timothy had come from Macedonia, Paul was bcompelled by the Spirit, and testified to the Jews that Jesus is the Christ.
6 But awhen they opposed him and blasphemed, bhe shook his garments and said to them, c“Your blood be upon your own heads; dI am clean. eFrom now on I will go to the Gentiles.”
7 And he departed from there and entered the house of a certain man named1 Justus, one who worshiped God, whose house was next door to the synagogue.
8aThen Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed on the Lord with all his household. And many of the Corinthians, hearing, believed and were baptized.
There is no indication anywhere in this context, from chapter 13 through 18, that Paul taught them anything other than that they should keep the Sabbath. If he had taught them anything different, here is another wonderful opportunity for Luke to inject it into the text, but he does not.
