ACTS 17:24 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;”
The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by human hands — Paul pivots immediately from the altar to creational theology: God transcends spatial localization (mē en cheiropoiētois, not in human-made things). This refutes both Stoic pantheism and Epicurean remoteness, asserting God's creative lordship.
