and said, Men and brethren, it was necessary that this scripture should be fulfilled, which the holy Ghost spake by the mouth of David, concerning Judas, who was guide to them that apprehended Jesus:

to take part of this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas is fallen by his transgression, that he might go to his own place.

After him arose Judas the Galilean, at the time of the registring, and drew much people after him: but he also perished, and all that followed him were dispersed.

And the Lord said unto him, Arise and go into the street which is called Strait, and enquire in the house of Judas for one Saul, of Tarsus:

Then it seemed good to the apostles, and elders, and the whole church, to send men chose from among themselves to Antioch along with Paul and Barnabas; namely, Judas sirnamed Barsabas, and Silas; leading men among the brethren:

We have therefore sent with them Judas and Silas, to tell you the same things also by word of mouth.

And Judas and Silas being prophets also themselves, exhorted and established: the brethren by many discourses.
