SCRIPTURE

"And it came to pass in Iconium that they entered together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spake that a great multitude both of Jews and of Greeks believed." — Acts 14:1 (ASV)

So spoke. This means they spoke with such power—their preaching was so attended by the influence of the Spirit.
