使徒の働き 22:4 JCB

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Acts 22:1-99

Acts 22 IN ALL THAT happened to Paul in Jerusalem it is not difficult to discern the hand of God controlling behind the scenes. Though the city was in an uproar no one struck a fatal blow until sufficient time had elapsed for the chief captain to intervene. Then the fact of Paul addressing him in Greek created the favourable impression which led to the permission to address the riotous crowds from the stairs of the castle. Then Paul’s choice of Hebrew for his speech led to a complete silence... read more

Paul's Speech to the Jews. Acts 21:40 ; Acts 22:1-Ecclesiastes : Concerning Paul's early life and persecution of the Church: v. 40. And when he had given him license, Paul stood on the stairs, and beckoned with the hand unto the people. And when there was made a great silence, he spake unto them in the Hebrew tongue, saying, v. 1. Men, brethren, and fathers, hear ye my defense which I make now unto you. v. 2.

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Acts 22:1-16

How His Life Was Changed Acts 22:1-16 What a sermon Paul preached! His pulpit, the steps that ascended from the Temple level to the Castle of Antonia. His audience, the frenzied crowds who filled the court below him, but who were calmed to silence as they heard the venerable Hebrew speech, which was unintelligible to the Romans around them. His text, the real and personal interposition of the living Christ to arrest his course of persecution and convert him. Here was a fact, which to the... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Acts 22:1-30

Paul's defense as here recorded is a rare and perfect example of Christian argument. He was defending his devotion to work among the Gentiles. In that defense the last word he was permitted to utter was the word "Gentiles." Immediately the fury of the crowds burst out. In that moment of crisis Paul broke once and forever with the trammels of the Judaic system. At this point we have a remarkable view of the condition of affairs in the church at Jerusalem. Quite evidently there were many who... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 22:1-29

Paul Is Arrested And Speaks To The Crowd Giving His Own Testimony. They Reply ‘Away With Him’ (21:31-22:29). At this point begins the remarkable account of Paul’s imprisonment, trials and treatment at the hands of men in Jerusalem and Caesarea (from Acts 21:31 to Acts 26:32). It could well have been said of him also, ‘you will be delivered into the hands of men’ (Luke 9:44; Luke 24:7). What follows can only really be understood by those who understood the situation in Palestine. Hyrcanus and... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 22:1-30

PAUL’S JOURNEY TO JERUSALEM AND THEN TO ROME (19:21-28:31). Here we begin a new section of Acts. It commences with Paul’s purposing to go to Jerusalem, followed by an incident, which, while it brings to the conclusion his ministry in Ephesus, very much introduces the new section. From this point on all changes. Paul’s ‘journey to Jerusalem’ and then to Rome has begun, with Paul driven along by the Holy Spirit. The ending of the previous section as suggested by the closing summary in Acts 19:20... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 22:3-5

“I am a Jew, born in Tarsus of Cilicia, but brought up in this city, at the feet of Gamaliel, instructed according to the strict manner of the law of our fathers, being zealous for God, even as you all are this day, and I persecuted this Way to the death, binding and delivering into prisons both men and women. As also the high priest does bear me witness, and all the estate of the elders, from whom also I received letters to the brethren, and journeyed to Damascus to bring them also who were... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 22:1-21

Acts 22:1-Ecclesiastes : . Paul’ s Speech to the Jews.— The opening of the speech is like that of Stephen ( Acts 7:2). In 2 Corinthians 11:22 Paul attests his full membership of the Jewish people, and having lived many years in Palestine he could no doubt speak Aramaic, though his countrymen did not expect it of him. Acts 22:3 . at the feet of Gamaliel: Jewish boys sat on the floor at their lessons.— Gamaliel: cf. Acts 5:34. Some scholars are strongly inclined to put Paul down as a pure... read more
