Disposition:
an ordinance, e.g., Rom 13:2 (cp. diatasso, "to appoint, ordain"), is rendered "disposition" in Act 7:53; RV, "as it (the law) was ordained by angels" (marg., "as the ordinance of angels;" lit., "unto ordinances of angels"). Angels are mentioned in connection with the giving of the Law of Moses in Deu 33:2. In Gal 3:19; Hbr 2:2 the purpose of the reference to them is to show the superiority of the Gospel to the Law. In Act 7:53 Stephen mentions the angels to stress the majesty of the Law.
