25. Then Barnabas went on to Tarsus to look for Saul.
26. When he found him, he brought him back to Antioch. Both of them stayed there with the church for a full year, teaching large crowds of people. (It was at Antioch that the believers were first called Christians.)
27. During this time some prophets traveled from Jerusalem to Antioch.
28. One of them named Agabus stood up in one of the meetings and predicted by the Spirit that a great famine was coming upon the entire Roman world. (This was fulfilled during the reign of Claudius.)
29. So the believers in Antioch decided to send relief to the brothers and sisters in Judea, everyone giving as much as they could.
30. This they did, entrusting their gifts to Barnabas and Saul to take to the elders of the church in Jerusalem.
