Our Lord came down from life to suffer death; the Bread came down, to hunger; the Way came down, on the way to weariness; the Fount came down, to thirst. —Augustine, Sermon 78

Acts 13:24 – NASB vs. HCSB vs. ESV

Acts 13:24 NASB after John had proclaimed before His coming a baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.

Acts 13:24 HCSB Before He came to public attention, John had previously proclaimed a baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.

Acts 13:24 ESV Before his coming, John had proclaimed a baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.

The word “coming” in the NASB and ESV is actually a translation of two different Greek words – prosōpon, eisodos. The HCSB is the most literal here of the three with the translation, “public attention.”
