(9) But when some, hardening in disobeying, spoke evil of The Way before the multitude, he withdrew from them, taking away the disciples, conversing daily in the school of Tyrannus (Tyrant).
The F.O.G
[9] However, some hearts grew increasingly hardened. These opponents not only rejected the message but began speaking venomously against the Way of Jesus in public gatherings. Recognizing the toxic atmosphere, Paul led the believers away. He began holding daily discussions in Tyrannus's lecture hall, a place where ideas were freely exchanged.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
and when certain were hardened and were disbelieving, speaking evil of the way before the multitude, having departed from them, he did separate the disciples, every day reasoning in the school of a certain Tyrannus.
