Seven Chosen to Serve
Now in these days when the disciples were increasing in number,
a complaint by the Hellenists arose against the Hebrews
because their widows were being neglected in the daily distribution.
2 And the twelve summoned the full number of the disciples
and said,
“It is not right that we should give up preaching the word of God to serve tables.
3 Therefore, brothers,
pick out from among you seven men of good repute,
full of the Spirit and of wisdom, whom we will appoint to this duty.
4 But we will devote ourselves to prayer and to the ministry of the word.”
5 And what they said pleased the whole gathering,
and they chose
Stephen,
a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit,
and
Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas,
and
Nicolaus, a proselyte of Antioch.
