ACTS 16:20 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And brought them to the magistrates, saying, These men, being Jews, do exceedingly trouble our city,”
They brought them before the magistrates and said, 'These men are Jews, and are throwing our city into an uproar — the accusation frames Paul and Silas as foreign troublemakers (Ioudaioi, Jews) disturbing civic order. The charge of unrest (tarassō, to disturb) appeals to civic magistrates' concern for stability.
