Paul's witnessing in Ephesus was so great that many men who practiced sorcery brought their books together and made a great bonfire in the sight of all the people. The Word of the Lord spread mightily.
19 And a number of those who had practiced magic arts brought their books together and burned them in the sight of all. And they counted the value of them and found it came to fifty thousand pieces of silver.20 So the word of the Lord continued to increase and prevail mightily.
