rwp@Acts:11:22 @{Came to the ears} (\kousth eis ta ta\). First aorist passive indicative of \akou\, was heard in the ears. {Of the church which was in Jerusalem} (\ts ekklsias ts en Ierousalm\). Not yet was the term "church" applied to the group of disciples in Antioch as it is in strkjv@11:26; strkjv@13:1|. {They sent forth} (\exapesteilan\). First aorist active indicative of the double compound verb \ex-apo-stell\, to send out and away. The choice of Barnabas was eminently wise. He already had a position of leadership in Jerusalem because of his generosity (4:36f.|) and his championship of Saul after his conversion (9:27|). He was originally from Cyprus and probably had personal friends among some of the leaders in this new movement. He was to investigate the work of the travelling preachers (verse 19|) all the way to Antioch (\hes Antiocheias\).

rwp@Mark:7:37 @{He hath done all things well} (\Kals panta pepoiken\). The present perfect active shows the settled convictions of these people about Jesus. Their great amazement (\huperperisss exeplssonto\), imperfect passive and compound adverb, thus found expression in a vociferous championship of Jesus in this pagan land.
