Acts 11:21, Berean Standard Bible
Explanation preview
Acts 11 recounts how the gospel spread beyond Jewish circles, and verse 21 describes the outcome in Antioch, where unnamed believers from Cyprus and Cyrene had begun preaching to Greeks. Luke, the narrator, credits the response not to the preachers' skill but to "the hand of the Lord," a biblical phrase for God's active power and favor.
