Acts - ch 1 v 21 - 26
- `It behoveth, therefore, of the men who did go with us during all the time in which the Lord Jesus went in and went out among us,
- beginning from the baptism of John, unto the day in which he was received up from us, one of these to become with us a witness of his rising again.'
- And they set two, Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias,
- and having prayed, they said, `Thou, Lord, who art knowing the heart of all, shew which one thou didst choose of these two
- to receive the share of this ministration and apostleship, from which Judas, by transgression, did fall, to go on to his proper place;'
- and they gave their lots, and the lot fell upon Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
