The Quiet Disappearance of Paul At the Close of the Apostolic History
Acts 28:30-31
And Paul dwelled two whole years in his own hired house, and received all that came in to him,…


It points to —

1. The exalted Lord of the Church who abides, although His servants disappear.

2. The blessed rest into which God's faithful servants are permitted to enter after the well-concluded day of work.

3. The work of faith and labour of love left behind to us from these first chosen witnesses.

4. The great day which will bring to light all that is now dark in the history of the kingdom of God.

(K. Gerok.)
