Exegesis
The verse begins with the impersonal verb edoxen {ἔδοξεν | é-dox-en} “it seemed good,” a conventional formulary in deliberative assemblies, with hēmin {ἡμῖν | hē-mîn} marking the decision-making group.
In context — Acts 15:25
It seemed good to us, having come to one accord, to choose men and send them to you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul.
