ACTS 14:26 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And thence sailed to Antioch, from whence they had been recommended to the grace of God for the work which they fulfilled.”
From Attalia they sailed back to Antioch, where they had been committed to the grace of God for the work they had now completed — the return to sending community (Antioch) marks the completion of the first missionary journey. The phrase committed to the grace of God for the work (paratithēmi tēi chariti tou Theou) recalls 13:3, establishing a theological inclusio: the journey begins and ends in grace.
