Acts 13:50-52 But the Jews stirred up the devout and honorable women, and the chief men of the city, and raised persecution against Paul and Barnabas… 1. When he has not only knocked in a friendly manner, but also boldly kept is ground. 2. When he has been called on to proceed, not only by men, but by God. 3. When not only the door here is closed, but when he also sees it opened elsewhere for successful work. (K. Gerok.) Parallel Verses KJV: But the Jews stirred up the devout and honourable women, and the chief men of the city, and raised persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled them out of their coasts. |
