Acts 11:24
For he was a good man, and full of the Holy Ghost and of faith: and much people was added unto the Lord.
Connections
μᾶλλον δὲ προσετίθεντο πιστεύοντες τῷ κυρίῳ πλήθη ἀνδρῶν τε καὶ γυναικῶν
And believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women.)
καὶ ἦν χεὶρ κυρίου μετ' αὐτῶν πολύς τε ἀριθμὸς πιστεύσας ἐπέστρεψεν ἐπὶ τὸν κύριον
And the hand of the Lord was with them: and a great number believed, and turned unto the Lord.
טֽוֹב-אִישׁ חוֹנֵן וּמַלְוֶה יְכַלְכֵּל דְּבָרָיו בְּמִשְׁפָּֽט׃
A good man sheweth favour, and lendeth: he will guide his affairs with discretion.
καὶ ἤρεσεν ὁ λόγος ἐνώπιον παντὸς τοῦ πλήθους καὶ ἐξελέξαντο Στέφανον ἄνδρα πλήρη πίστεως καὶ πνεύματος ἁγίου καὶ Φίλιππον καὶ Πρόχορον καὶ Νικάνορα καὶ Τίμωνα καὶ Παρμενᾶν καὶ Νικόλαον προσήλυτον Ἀντιοχέα
And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch:
Αἱ μὲν οὖν ἐκκλησίαι καθ' ὅλης τῆς Ἰουδαίας καὶ Γαλιλαίας καὶ Σαμαρείας εἶχον εἰρήνην οἰκοδομουμέναι καὶ πορευομέναι τῷ φόβῳ τοῦ κυρίου καὶ τῇ παρακλήσει τοῦ ἁγίου πνεύματος ἐπληθύνοντο
Then had the churches rest throughout all Judaea and Galilee and Samaria, and were edified; and walking in the fear of the Lord, and in the comfort of the Holy Ghost, were multiplied.
Στέφανος δὲ πλήρης πίστεως καὶ δυνάμεως ἐποίει τέρατα καὶ σημεῖα μεγάλα ἐν τῷ λαῷ
And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and miracles among the people.
τολμηρότερον δὲ ἔγραψα ὑμῖν ἀδελφοί ἀπὸ μέρους ὡς ἐπαναμιμνῄσκων ὑμᾶς διὰ τὴν χάριν τὴν δοθεῖσάν μοι ὑπὸ τοῦ θεοῦ
Nevertheless, brethren, I have written the more boldly unto you in some sort, as putting in mind, you because of the grace that is given to me of God,
ἐπισκέψασθε οὖν ἀδελφοί ἄνδρας ἐξ ὑμῶν μαρτυρουμένους ἑπτὰ πλήρεις πνεύματος Ἅγιου καὶ σοφίας οὓς καταστήσομεν ἐπὶ τῆς χρείας ταύτης
Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.
וַיֹּאמֶר הַצֹּפֶה אֲנִי רֹאֶה אֶת-מְרוּצַת הָֽרִאשׁוֹן כִּמְרֻצַת אֲחִימַעַץ בֶּן-צָדוֹק וַיֹּאמֶר הַמֶּלֶךְ אִֽישׁ-טוֹב זֶה וְאֶל-בְּשׂוֹרָה טוֹבָה יָבֽוֹא׃
And the watchman said, Me thinketh the running of the foremost is like the running of Ahimaaz the son of Zadok. And the king said, He is a good man, and cometh with good tidings.
טוֹב יָפִיק רָצוֹן מֵיְהוָה וְאִישׁ מְזִמּוֹת יַרְשִֽׁיעַ׃
A good man obtaineth favour of the LORD: but a man of wicked devices will he condemn.
ὁ ἀγαθὸς ἄνθρωπος ἐκ τοῦ ἀγαθοῦ θησαυροῦ τῆς καρδίας ἐκβάλλει τά ἀγαθά καὶ ὁ πονηρὸς ἄνθρωπος ἐκ τοῦ πονηροῦ θησαυροῦ ἐκβάλλει πονηρά
A good man out of good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things. the
μόλις γὰρ ὑπὲρ δικαίου τις ἀποθανεῖται· ὑπὲρ γὰρ τοῦ ἀγαθοῦ τάχα τις καὶ τολμᾷ ἀποθανεῖν·
For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die.
ὁ δὲ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Τί με λέγεις ἀγαθόν οὐδεὶς ἀγαθός· εἰ μὴ εἷς ὁ Θεός. εἰ δὲ θέλεις εἰσελθεῖν εἰς τὴν ζωὴν τήρησον τὰς ἐντολάς
And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
ἐν τούτῳ δὲ αὐτὸς ἀσκῶ ἀπρόσκοπον συνείδησιν ἔχειν πρὸς τὸν θεὸν καὶ τοὺς ἀνθρώπους διαπαντός
And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void of offence toward God, and toward men.
מֵיְהוָה מִֽצְעֲדֵי-גֶבֶר כּוֹנָנוּ וְדַרְכּוֹ יֶחְפָּֽץ׃
The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way.
מִדְּרָכָיו יִשְׂבַּע סוּג לֵב וּמֵעָלָיו אִישׁ טֽוֹב׃
The backslider in heart shall be filled with his own ways: and a good man shall be satisfied from himself.
טוֹב יַנְחִיל בְּנֵֽי-בָנִים וְצָפוּן לַצַּדִּיק חֵיל חוֹטֵֽא׃
A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children's children: and the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just.
Καὶ ἰδού ἀνὴρ ὀνόματι Ἰωσὴφ βουλευτὴς ὑπάρχων ἀνὴρ ἀγαθὸς καὶ δίκαιος
And, behold, there was a man named Joseph, a counseller; and he was a good man, and a just:
καὶ γογγυσμὸς πολὺς περὶ αὐτοῦ ἦν ἐν τοῖς ὄχλοις· οἱ μὲν ἔλεγον ὅτι Ἀγαθός ἐστιν ἄλλοι δὲ ἔλεγον Οὔ ἀλλὰ πλανᾷ τὸν ὄχλον
And there was much murmuring among the people concerning him: for some said, He is a good man: others said, Nay; but he deceiveth the people.
