101   2,  40 |      better use, not doing this on their own authority, but by the

117   3,   6 |          all their goods, and laid their price at the apostles' feet
118   3,   6 |            because men who had for their gods idols made with hands

149   3,  34 |           by their own way, and by their doings: their way was before
150   3,  34 |          way, and by their doings: their way was before me as the
