acts 17:25 neither is He served by human hands, as though He needed anything, since He Himself gives to all life and breath and all things;

< Acts 17:24
Acts 17:26 >

      25. Neither is worshipped with--ministered unto, served by
      men's hands, as though he needed anything--No less familiar as this thought also is to us, even from the earliest times of the Old Testament (Job 35:6, 8; Ps 16:2, 3; 50:12-14; Isa 40:14-18), it would pour a flood of light upon any candid heathen mind that heard it.
      seeing he--He Himself.
      giveth to all life, and breath, and all things--The Giver of all cannot surely be dependent for aught upon the receivers of all (1Ch 29:14). This is the culminating point of a pure Theism.
