To whom he also showed himself alive after his passion by many proofs, appearing unto them by the space of forty days, and speaking the things concerning the kingdom of God:
And he was with them going in and going out at Jerusalem,
And now, behold, I know that ye all, among whom I went about preaching the kingdom, shall see my face no more.
And on my behalf, that utterance may be given unto me in opening my mouth, to make known with boldness the mystery of the gospel,
for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
wherein I suffer hardship unto bonds, as a malefactor; but the word of God is not bound.
