Acts 13:1 - Forerunner Commentary

Acts 13:1

1 Now ^ain the church that was at Antioch there were certain prophets and teachers: ^bBarnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, ^cLucius of Cyrene, Manaen who had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.

2 As they ministered to the Lord and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, ^a“Now separate to Me Barnabas and Saul for the work ^bto which I have called them.”

3 Then, ^ahaving fasted and prayed, and laid hands on them, they sent them away.
