Acts 15:35

New English Translation

³⁵But Paul and Barnabas remained in Antioch,^[a] teaching and proclaiming (along with many others)^[b] the word of the Lord.^[c]

Acts 15:35 sn Antioch was a city in Syria (not Antioch in Pisidia).
Acts 15:35 sn This is a parenthetical note by the author.
Acts 15:35 sn The word of the Lord is a technical expression in OT literature, often referring to a divine prophetic utterance (e.g., Gen 15:1, Isa 1:10, Jonah 1:1). In the NT it occurs 15 times: 3 times as ῥῆμα τοῦ κυρίου (rhēma tou kuriou; Luke 22:61, Acts 11:16, 1 Pet 1:25) and 12 times as λόγος τοῦ κυρίου (logos tou kuriou; here and in v. 36; Acts 8:25; 13:44, 48, 49; 16:32; 19:10, 20; 1 Thess 1:8; 4:15; 2 Thess 3:1). As in the OT, this phrase focuses on the prophetic nature and divine origin of what has been said.
