Acts 15:9

---

← Acts 15:8	Acts 15:9 (KJV)	Acts 15:10 →
And God, which knoweth the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Ghost, even as [he did] unto us;	And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.	Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?

• G2588 — καρδία (kardía, kar-dee'-ah): the heart, inner life, intention — prolonged from a primary (Latin cor, "heart"); the heart, i.e. (figuratively) the thoughts or feelings (mind); also (by analogy) the middle:--(+ broken-)heart(-ed).
