# Connecting Statement:
This continues the missionary journeys of Paul with Silas. Timothy is introduced into the story and joins Paul and Silas. Verses 1 and 2 give background information about Timothy. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/writing-background]])
# Paul also came
Here "came" can be translated as "went." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-go]])
# Derbe
This is the name of a city in Asia Minor. See how you translated it in [Acts 14:6](../14/06.md).
# behold
The word "behold" alerts us to a new person in the narrative. Your language may have a way of doing this.
# who was a believer
The words "in Christ" are understood. Alternate translation: "who was a believer in Christ" or "who believed in Christ" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-explicit]])
