Acts 17:8
And they troubled the people and the rulers of the city, when they heard these things.
And they troubled the people, and the rulers of the city,.... Fearing some revolution would be made, and some new king, or rather tyrant, would start up, and usurp a power over them; or that they should come under some suspicion or charge with the Roman government, and should be called to an account, for admitting such men and tenets among them; with such fears were they possessed,
when they heard these things; alleged against the apostle and his company.
