ACTS 17:27 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us:”
God did this so that all people would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him — though he is not far from any one of us — The purpose clause reveals divine intent: all nations' dispersal aims at universal seeking (zēteō, to seek earnestly). The paradox stands: though God seems distant via unknown altars, he remains proximate ('not far from any one of us').
