Acts 9:38

And forasmuch as Lydda was nigh to Joppa, and the disciples had heard that Peter was there, they sent unto him two men, desiring him that he would not delay to come to them.

And forasmuch as Lydda was nigh to Joppa (see the note at Acts 9:32 ), and the disciples had heard that Peter was there, they sent unto him two men, desiring him that he would not delay to come to them. The direct form, 'Delay not to come to us' [ okneesees (G3635) ... heemoon (G2257)], is decidedly better supported. This request shows that miraculous gifts were not possessed by the disciples generally (as Bengel notes).
