'Spreading' in the Bible

And tongues spreading out like a fire appeared to them and came to rest on each one of them.

But to keep it from spreading any further among the people, let us warn them never again to speak to anyone in this name."

The word of God kept on spreading; and the number of the disciples continued to increase greatly in Jerusalem, and a great many of the priests were becoming obedient to the faith.

Those, however, who were scattered abroad went from place to place spreading the Good News of God's Message;

So the word of the Lord was spreading through the entire region.

In that way the word of the Lord kept spreading and triumphing.
