Notes: In translating RV ACT 10:4 · LV ACT 10:4 · Read together ACT 10:4 it is important to avoid implying that God had forgotten; the implication is simply that prayers and acts of charity are means by which God becomes aware and thus responds to such events.|It is also possible to restructure the meaningful components of this statement as in the case of TEV, “God is pleased with your prayers and works of charity.”
