Commentary on Acts 13:3
The laying on of hands following prayer and fasting represents formal commissioning, not impartation of new gifting—Barnabas and Saul already possessed the Spirit. This public act expressed church partnership in their mission and accountability. The sequence (Spirit's call, church's confirmation, public sending) establishes pattern for missionary deployment.
