“And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need.”
Acts 2:45 (KJV)
Commentary on Acts 2:45
Believers 'sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need' demonstrates love's practical expression. The Greek 'epidiedoun' (distributed) indicates ongoing action, not one-time event. This generosity wasn't forced leveling but need-based assistance. The phrase 'as every man had need' refutes both hoarding and indiscriminate giving - wisdom guided compassion. This models biblical stewardship: recognizing God owns all, we're trustees serving others.
