Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother,
Ἀκούσαντες δὲ ἀνάστασιν νεκρῶν οἱ μὲν ἐχλεύαζον οἱ δὲ εἶπον Ἀκουσόμεθά σου πάλιν περὶ τούτου
And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked: and others said, We will hear thee again of this matter.
