Here the word "us" includes Paul and his entire audience in the synagogue. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-inclusive]])
# Brothers, children of the line of Abraham ... who worship God
# Brothers, children of the line of Abraham, and those among you who fear God
Paul addresses his audience of Jews and Gentile converts to Judaism to remind them of their special status as worshiping the true God.
Possible meanings are 1) this is a list with three items, and Paul is addressing three groups of people together, or 2) the phrases "children of the line of Abraham" and "those among you who fear God" refer to the two groups of people whom Paul addresses as "brothers."
# those among you who fear God
These words refer specifically to Gentiles who worshiped in the synagogue and obeyed much of the law of Moses but had not been circumcised.

The word "us" refers to Paul and Barnabas but not the crowd that was present, so it is exclusive. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-you]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-exclusive]])
# commanded us ... 'I have placed you as a light ... you should bring salvation to the uttermost parts of the earth'
# commanded us ... 'I have placed you as a light ... you should bring salvation to the uttermost parts of the earth.'
Both instances of "you" here are singular, but when Paul said, "... the Lord commanded us," Paul was applying those singular words to both himself and Barnabas. The words in the quotation were originally spoken by God through Isaiah the prophet to God's servant. By quoting Isaiah's prophecy, Paul was saying that he and Barnabas were doing what God commanded his servant to do. Paul was not saying that God had spoken directly to him.
