Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Acts 16:1-5

Then came he to Derbe and Lystra: and, behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a certain woman, which was a Jewess, and believed; but his father was a Greek: (2) Which was well reported of by the brethren that were at Lystra and Iconium. (3) Him would Paul have to go forth with him; and took and circumcised him because of the Jews which were in those quarters: for they knew all that his father was a Greek. (4) And as they went through the cities, they delivered them the... read more

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Acts 16:1-5

1-5 Well may the church look for much service from youthful ministers who set out in the same spirit as Timothy. But when men will submit in nothing, and oblige in nothing, the first elements of the Christian temper seem to be wanting; and there is great reason to believe that the doctrines and precepts of the gospel will not be successfully taught. The design of the decree being to set aside the ceremonial law, and its carnal ordinances, believers were confirmed in the Christian faith, because... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Acts 16:1-99

Acts 16 THIS CHAPTER OPENS with Paul back at Derbe and Lystra, back, that is, to the scenes where he had suffered the stoning. In those very places he now finds Timothy, who was to become in his latter years such a comfort to him. A happy illustration of how God’s government acts in favour of the godly. We are apt to think of it only as acting against the ungodly. Out of the place of Paul’s sufferings sprang one of his greatest comforts. Now as Timothy’s father was a Greek he had not been... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Acts 16:1-13

Guided to New Fields Acts 16:1-13 Paul had a wonderful influence over young men. Timothy, Titus, and Mark bore his impress. When circumcision was insisted upon, as in the previous chapter, no one opposed it more stoutly than Paul; when it conciliated Jewish prejudice, he was quite willing to concede it, since in itself it was a matter of perfect indifference. As the stoning of Stephen was the first step toward winning Paul, so his own stoning at Lystra on the former occasion, as we have... read more

Here begins the account of Pads second journey. At Lystra he found Timothy. His action in the circumcision of Timothy is startling in view of the recent decision of the council. Some charge him with inconsistency, and yet perhaps it was a proof of a larger and deeper consistency. The beginning of this journey is noted for a remarkable experience. The Spirit compelled Paul to a course against his own inclination. At the end of that journey the man of Macedonia appeared to him, and the movement... read more

THE CALL OF TIMOTHY‘Then came he to Derbe and Lystra; and, behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timotheus … Him would Paul have to go forth with him.’Acts 16:1-Leviticus :We now enter upon what is called St. Paul’s ‘Second Missionary Journey.’ Leaving Antioch, in company with Silas, ‘recommended by the brethren to the grace of God,’ St. Paul entered upon his second missionary journey. He had already twice visited Derbe, Lystra, and Iconium, and now he proposes to visit them a third... read more

‘And he came also to Derbe and to Lystra: and behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a Jewess who believed, but his father was a Greek. The same was well reported of by the brethren who were at Lystra and Iconium. Eventually therefore he came to Derbe and Lystra. And there he came across a young man who would be closely connected with him for the remainder of his life. Often in the days to come Timothy was to be Paul's trusted messenger (1 Corinthians 4:17; 1... read more

The Expansion Of The Word In Cyprus and Asia Minor, With Satan’s Counterattack Being Defeated at an Assembly In Jerusalem, Which is Then Followed By Further Ministry (13:1-18:22). Jerusalem having forfeited its Messiah and its right to evangelise the world, the torch now passes to Antioch. For in his presentation of the forward flow of ‘the word’ Luke now had to find the next great forwards movement and he found it at Syrian Antioch. From there at the instigation of the Holy Spirit (the Holy... read more
