The Greek-speaking Jews claimed that the widows among them were neglected every day when food and other assistance was distributed. 2 The twelve apostles called all the disciples together and told them, |It's not right for us to give up God's word in order to distribute food. 3 So, brothers and sisters, choose seven men whom the people know are spiritually wise.
