BLB⁽ⁱ⁾ ²² Now the report concerning them was heard in the ears of the church being in Jerusalem, and they sent forth Barnabas to go as far as Antioch, ²³ who having come and having seen the grace of God, rejoiced and was exhorting all to abide in the Lord with resolute purpose of heart. ²⁴ For he was a good man, and full of the Holy Spirit and of faith. And a large crowd was added to the Lord. ²⁵ And he went forth to Tarsus to seek Saul, ²⁶ and having found him, he brought him to Antioch. Now it came to pass that they also gathered together an entire year in the church, and taught a large crowd. And in Antioch the disciples were first called Christians.
