New Testament

-fell asleep. original: "-θη", the suffix for "ἐκοιμήθη" (fell asleep), describing Stephen's death at the end of Acts 7. On that day
there arose a
great persecution against the
church in Jerusalem.
And they were all scattered
throughout the regions of Ju-
dea and Samaria, except
for the apostles. And
devout men buried
Stephen, and made
a great lamentation
over him. But Saul
began to destroy the church,
entering into house after
house, dragging off both
men and women, and
committing them to prison.
Therefore those who were scattered
went about preaching
the word.

down to a city of Sa-
maria, proclaimed

the crowds with one
accord paid attention to the things spoken
by Philip, as they
heard him and saw the
signs that he performed.
For many who had
unclean spirits, cry-
ing out with a loud voice,
they came out; and many
who were paralyzed and lame
were healed. And there
was great joy in
that city. But a

a great persecution against
the church that was in Jeru-
salem. And everyone
was scattered to the provinces
of Judea and Samaria,
except for the apostles. And
devout men carried away
Stephen, and they

made a great
mourning over
him. But Saul
was harming the church;
he entered house after house,
dragging away men and women,
delivering them to prison.
And those who were dispersed went
about preaching the word.
Then Philip, having gone down
to the city of the Samaritans,
preached Christ to
them. The whole
multitude listened
to the words of Philip
with one accord, as they heard
and as they saw the
signs that
he did.
