THE TEMPLE OF THE GREAT ARTEMIS AND OF HER IMAGE THAT FELL FROM HEAVEN

-

ACTS 19:34-37

BUT WHEN THEY RECOGNIZED THAT HE WAS A JEW, THEY ALL SHOUTED IN UNISON, “GREAT IS ARTEMIS OF THE EPHESIANS!” FOR ABOUT TWO HOURS. AFTER THE CITY SECRETARY QUIETED THE CROWD, HE SAID, “MEN OF EPHESUS, WHAT PERSON IS THERE WHO DOES NOT KNOW THAT THE CITY OF THE EPHESIANS IS THE KEEPER OF THE TEMPLE OF THE GREAT ARTEMIS AND OF HER IMAGE THAT FELL FROM HEAVEN?  
SO BECAUSE THESE FACTS ARE INDISPUTABLE,YOU MUST KEEP QUIET AND NOT DO ANYTHING RECKLESS. FOR YOU HAVE BROUGHT THESE MEN HERE WHO ARE NEITHER TEMPLE ROBBERS NOR BLASPHEMERS OF OUR GODDESS.
