And when they opposed themselves, and blasphemed, he shook [his] raiment, and said unto them, Your blood [be] upon your own heads; I [am] clean: from henceforth I will go unto the Gentiles.
Note 5 at Ac 18:6: The phrase "opposed themselves" is simply an old English way of saying they set themselves in opposition to, or resisted, what Paul was preaching. However, the play on words is very appropriate. Those who resist the Gospel are opposing themselves, since the Gospel is the power of God unto salvation (Ro 1:16).
