ACTS 16:16-18

 

Q: Why was Paul mad?

 

(1) exploitation of slave girl

 

(2) her negative witness because of its source

 

(3) distortion of the message (It can be translated as "a way of salvation")

 

(4) “Most High God” may be a reference to Zeus.

 

(5) It reflects Paul's general outlook on using supernatural means to make money (as in Acts 8:18ff and

Acts 19:25).
