Context of Acts 19:10
8Paul entered the synagogue and spoke boldly over a period of three months, arguing and persuading them about the kingdom of God. 9But when some became hardened and would not believe, slandering the Way in front of the crowd, he withdrew from them, taking the disciples, and conducted discussions every day in the lecture hall of Tyrannus. This went on for two years, so that all the residents of Asia, both Jews and Greeks, heard the word of the Lord. 11God was performing extraordinary miracles by Paul’s hands, 12so that even facecloths or aprons that had touched his skin were brought to the sick, and the diseases left them, and the evil spirits came out of them.
