The Good News Comes to Antioch

¹⁹ Many of the believers were scattered when they were persecuted after Stephen was killed. Some of them went as far as Phoenicia [^Cnorthwest of Israel on the coast], Cyprus [^Can island to the west of the coast of Syria], and Antioch [^Can important city in Syria] telling the message to others, but only to Jews.
