9 Now athe Lord spoke to Paul in the night by a vision, “Do not be afraid, but speak, and do not keep silent;  
10 afor I am with you, and no one will attack you to hurt you; for I have many people in this city.”  
11 And he continued there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
12 When Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one accord rose up against Paul and brought him to the1 judgment seat,  
13 saying, “This fellow persuades men to worship God contrary to the law.”

Acts 18:11

continued there a year and six months—the whole period of this stay at Corinth, and not merely up to what is next recorded. During some part of this period he wrote his SECOND EPISTLE TO THE THESSALONIANS. (See Introduction to Second Thessalonians.)



Acts 18:9-11

Then spake the Lord to Paul . . . by a vision, Be not afraid . . . no man shall set on thee to hurt thee, etc.—From this it would seem that these signal successes were stirring up the wrath of the unbelieving Jews, and probably the apostle feared being driven by violence, as before, from this scene of such promising labor. He is reassured, however, from above.
