20But there were some of them, men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who upon entering Antioch started speaking to the Greek-speakers, preaching the good news of the Lord Jesus.
21And the hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number believed and turned to the Lord.
22Well the report concerning them reached the ears of the church in Jerusalem, and they sent out Barnabas to go as far as Antioch.
23Upon arriving and seeing the grace of God, he was glad, and he kept encouraging them all to remain true to the Lord with purpose of heart
24(for he was a good man, full of Holy Spirit and of faith). And a considerable crowd was added to the Lord.
25Then Barnabas departed for Tarsus to look for Saul,
26and upon finding him he brought him to Antioch. So it was that for a whole year they met with the congregation and taught a great many people. The disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.
27Now in these days, prophets came from Jerusalem to Antioch.
