Acts 4:36-37
Excerpted from: EncouragementNow, there were many in the early church who were doing the same thing. They were taking their possessions and selling houses and property and bringing it to the church. And that is how we are introduced to Barnabas here in the book of Acts. He sold property and he brought it to the church. So he could be an encouragement to them as well.
It is interesting that he was a Levite but he was from the country of Cyprus. That means he was not born in Judah. He was not a Jew. But he was an Israelite because he was a Levite. And I also find it interesting that this man is only known by his nickname. His name was Joseph but we know him as Barnabas. So, there must have been something extremely positive, encouraging about the attitude of this man and the impact that he had on the early church to be given such a special nickname.
