I just read someone argue that "ordained" in Acts 14:23 etymologically means to "stretch out the hand, to constitute by voting. The argument is that everyone voted on the elders of the various churches.
My greek is weak. Can "ordained" really be used to mean a simple vote? Even if it can I still see that the passage is talking about Paul and Barnabus doing the ordination, not every disciple.
