<<Where does this term "God-fearers" come from? I cannot find it in
>>any Biblical references.>>

I missed this thread the first time around and so may have also missed
someone noting this, but Luke uses FOBOUMENOS TON QEON of Cornelius (Acts
10:2, 22, 35), and in 13:16, 26 of non-Jews present in a synagogue. He
uses SEBOMENOS/H [TON QEON] similarly in 13:43, 50; 16:14; 17:4, 17; 18:7.
