Nicolaus93.283a
Listing the seven chosen to serve, Acts 6:5 states “The announcement found approval with the whole congregation; and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, and Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas, a proselyte from Antioch,” where “Nicolas” renders this proper name of one of the seven.
Nicolaus93.283b
The same reference in Acts 6:5, “...and Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas, a proselyte from Antioch,” is this lexeme's sole tagged occurrence, so this second Louw-Nida entry names the identical individual as the entry above; no additional citation exists to further distinguish the two listed senses.
