Apostlagärningarna 11:26

Apostlagärningarna 11:26 SKB

När han hade hittat honom, tog han med sig honom till Antiokia. Under ett års tid var de tillsammans med församlingen och undervisade ett stort antal människor. Det var i Antiokia som lärjungarna för första gången började kallas kristna (kristusanhängare). [Tidigare hade de troende kallats ”Vägen”, se . Ett annat namn var anhängare till ”nasaréernas sekt”, eftersom Jesus var från Nasaret och kallades nasaré, se . Här i Antiokia började man kalla dem ”kristna”, antagligen i en nedsättande ton. Det grekiska ordet christianos betyder ordagrant ”anhängare till den Smorde” eller transkriberat ”kristusanhängare” och återfinns bara tre gånger i NT, här och i . Denna typ av nya sammansatta ord var inte ovanliga, i kallas de som stödde kung Herodes för ”herodianer”.] [Det har gått några år sedan Saulus kommit till Antiokia, se vers 26. Händelserna utspelar sig i början på 40-talet e.Kr.]
