23 Then when he arrived and (a)witnessed (A)the grace of God, he rejoiced and began to encourage them all with (b)resolute heart to remain true to the Lord; 24 for he was a good man, and (B)full of the Holy Spirit and of faith. And (C)considerable (c)numbers were (d)brought to the Lord. 25 And he left for (D)Tarsus to look for Saul; 26 and when he had found him, he brought him to (E)Antioch. And for an entire year they (e)met with the church and taught considerable (f)numbers; and (F)the disciples were first called (G)Christians in (H)Antioch.
27 Now (g)at this time (I)some prophets came down from Jerusalem to (J)Antioch.
