¶ The .vi. Chapter.

A   In those dayes as the nombre of the disciples grewe / ther arose a grudge amonge the Grekes agaynst the Ebrues / be cause their wyddowes were despysed in the dayly mynystracion. Then the twelve called the multitude of the disciples to gether ∧ sayde: it is not mete that we shuld leave the worde of God ∧ serve at the tables. Wherfore brethren / note loke ye out am&obar;ge you seven men of honest reporte / ∧ full of the holy goost ∧ wysdome / which we maye apoynte to this nedfull busynes. But we will geve oure selves c&obar;tinually to prayer / B   ∧ to the ministracion of þe; worde. And the sayinge pleased the whoale multitude. And they chose Steven a man full of fayth ∧ of the holy goost / ∧ Philip / ∧ Prochorus / and Nichanor / and Timon / and Permenas / and Nicholas a converte of Antioche. Which they set before the Apostles / and they prayed and layde their hondes on them.

C   And the worde of God encreased / ∧ the no&ubar;bre of the disciples multiplied in Ierusalem greatly / and a great company of the prestes were obedient to the faythe. &cross2; noteAnd Steven full of faythe and power / dyd great wondres ∧ myracles am&obar;ge þe; people. Then ther arose

certayne of the synagoge / which are called Lybertines ∧ Syrenites / ∧ of Alexandria / and of Cilicia / and Asia / and disputed with Steven. And they coulde not resist the wysdome / ∧ the sprete / with which he spake. Then sent they in men / which sayd: we have hearde him speake blasphemous wordes agaynst Moses / ∧ agaynst God. And they moved þe; people ∧ the elders ∧ the scribes: and came apon him and caught him / and brought him to the counsell / ∧ brought forth falce witnesses which sayde. D   This m&abar; ceasith not to speake blasphemous wordes agaynst this holy place ∧ the lawe: for we hearde him saye: this Iesus of Nazareth shall destroye this place / ∧ shall chaunge the ordinaunces which Moses gave vs. And all that sate in þe; counsell loked stedfastly on him / ∧ sawe his face as it had bene the face of an angell.
