Acts 13:49

Compare all

47 For so the Lord has commanded us:
^a‘I have set you as a light to the Gentiles,
That you should be for salvation to the ends of the earth.’ ”

48 Now when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad and glorified the word of the Lord. ^aAnd as many as had been appointed to eternal life believed.

49 And the word of the Lord was being spread throughout all the region.

50 But the Jews stirred up the devout and prominent women and the chief men of the city, ^araised up persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled them from their region.

51 ^aBut they shook off the dust from their feet against them, and came to Iconium.

52 And the disciples ^awere filled with joy and ^bwith the Holy Spirit.

The word of the Lord was published, etc. - Those who had come from different parts, and were converted, carried the glad tidings to their respective neighbourhoods; and thus the doctrine was published throughout all the region of Pisidia, where they then were. See on Acts 13:44 (note).
