Chap. XI.
The Christian Ievves reprehend the foresaid fact of Peter in baptizing the Gentils 4 But
he alleaging his foresaid vvarrants, and shevving plainly that it vvas of God,
18 they like good Catholikes do yeld. 19 By the foresaid persecution, the Church is
yet further dilated, not only into al Ievvrie, Galilee, and Samaria, but also into
other Countries: specially in Antiochia Syria the increase among the Greekes, is
notable, first by the foresaid dispersed, 23 then by Barnabas, thirdly by him and
Saul together: so that there beginneth the name of Christians: 27 vvith perfite
vnity betvvene them and the Church that vvas before them at Hierusalem.
1 And the Apostles and brethren that vvere
in Ievvrie, heard that the Gentiles also receiued
the vvord of God.
2 And vvhen
Peter vvas come vp to Hierusalem, they
that vvere of the Circumcision reasoned
against him, saying,
3 Vvhy didst thou enter
in to men vncircumcised, and didst eate vvith them?
4 But
Peter began and declared to them the order, saying:
5 noteI was
in the citie of Ioppé praying, & I savv in an excesse of minde
a vision, a certaine vessel descending as it vvere a great sheete
with foure corners let dovvne from heauen, and it came euen
vnto me.
6 Into vvhich I looking c&obar;sidered, and savv foure
footed beastes of the earth, and cattel, and such as creepe, and
-- --
foules of the aire.
7 And I heard also a voice saying to me,
Arise Peter, kil and eate.
8 And I said, Not so Lord: for
common or vncleane thing neuer entred into my mouth.
9 And a voice ansvvered the second time from heauen: That
vvhich God hath made cleane, doe not thou call common.
10 And this vvas done thrise: and al vvere taken vp againe
into heauen.
11 And behold, three men immediatly vvere
come to the house vvherein I vvas, sent to me from Cæsaréa.
12 And the spirit said to me, that I should goe vvith them,
doubting nothing. And there came vvith me these sixe brethren
also: and vve vvent in to the mans house.
13 And he
told vs, hovv he had seen an Angel in his house, standing and
saying to him, Send to Ioppé, and cal hither Simon, that is
surnamed Peter,
14 vvho shal speake to thee vvordes vvherein
thou shalt be saued and al thy house.
15 And vvhen I
had begonne to speake, the holy Ghost fel vpon them, as vp&obar;
vs also in the beginning.
16 And I remembred the vvord of
our Lord, according as he said, Iohn in deede baptized vvith vvater,
but you shal be baptized vvith the holy Ghost. note
17 If therfore God hath
giuen them the same grace, as to vs also that beleeued in our
Lord Iesvs Christ: vvho vvas I that might prohibite
God?
18 Hauing heard these things, they note held their peace:
and glorified God, saying, God then to the Gentiles also hath
giuen repentance vnto life.
19 noteAnd they truely that had been dispersed by the tribulation
that vvas made vnder Steuen, vvalked through out
vnto Phœnîce and Cypres & Antioche, speaking the vvord
to none, but to the Ievves only.
20 But certaine of them vvere
men of Cypres and Cyréne, vvho vvhen they vvere entred
into Antioche, spake to the Greekes, preaching our Lord
Iesvs. note
21 And the hand of our Lord vvas vvith them: and
a great number of beleeuers vvas conuerted to our Lord.
22 And the report came to the eares of the Church that vvas
at Hierusalem, touching these things: and they sent note Barnabas
as farre as Antioche.
23 Vvho vvhen he vvas come, and
savv the grace of God, reioyced: and he exhorted al vvith
purpose of hart to continevv in our Lord:
24 because he
vvas a good man, and ful of the holy Ghost and faith. And a
great09Q0899 multitude vvas added to our Lord.
25 And he vvent,
forth to note Tarsus, to seeke Saul:
26 vvhom vvhen he had
found, he brought him to Antioche. And they c&obar;uersed there
-- --
in the church a vvhole yere: and they taught a great multitude,
so that the disciples vvere at Antioche first named
09Q0900 Christians. note
27 And in these daies there came Prophets from Hierusalem
to Antioche,
28 and one of them rising, named Agabus,
did by the Spirit signifie a great famine that should be in the
vvhole vvorld, vvhich fel vnder Claudius.
29 And the disciples
according as eche man had, purposed euery one to send,
for to serue the brethren that dvvelt in Ievvrie:
30 vvhich also
they did, sending to the auncients by the handes of Barnabas
and Saul.
