Passage of the Day - November 13, 2010

Acts 6:8-10

 8And Stephen, full of grace and power, was performing great wonders and signs among the people.

 9But some men from what was called the Synagogue of the Freedmen, including both Cyrenians and Alexandrians, and some from Cilicia and Asia, rose up and argued with Stephen.

 10But they were unable to cope with the wisdom and the Spirit with which he was speaking.

The Synagogue of the Freedmen was most likely made up of the descendants of the freed slaves that Pompey's conquest of Judea of 63 B.C. enslaved.  I didn't know who they were, so I thought I would let you know what I found for today.
