Acts 4:35

Acts 4:35

33 And with ^agreat power the apostles gave ^bwitness to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And ^cgreat grace was upon them all.

34 Nor was there anyone among them who lacked; ^afor all who were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the proceeds of the things that were sold,

35 ^aand laid them at the apostles’ feet; ^band they distributed to each as anyone had need.

36 And¹ Joses, who was also named Barnabas by the apostles (which is translated Son of² Encouragement), a Levite of the country of Cyprus,

37 ^ahaving land, sold it, and brought the money and laid it at the apostles’ feet.

Distribution was made (diedideto). Imperfect passive of diadidwmi, late omega form for diedidoto (the stem vowel o displaced by e). Impersonal use of the verb here.

According as any one had need (kaqoti an tiv xreian eixen). Imperfect active of exw with kaqoti and an with the notion of customary repetition in a comparative clause (Robertson, Grammar, p. 967).
