acts 15:14 "Simeon has related how God first concerned Himself about taking from among the Gentiles a people for His name.

< Acts 15:13
Acts 15:15 >

      14-17. Simeon--a Hebrew variation of Simon, as in 2Pe 1:1; (Greek), the Jewish and family name of Peter.
      hath declared how God at the first--answering to Peter's own expression "a good while ago" (Ac 15:7).
      did visit the Gentiles to take out of them--in the exercise of His adorable sovereignty.
      a people for his name--the honor of his name, or for His glory.

JFB.
