The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Acts 15:30-35

The delegates in Antioch: v. 30. So when they were dismissed, they came to Antioch; and when they had gathered the multitude together, they delivered the epistle; v. 31. which when they had read, they rejoiced for the consolation. v. 32. And Judas and Silas, being prophets also themselves, exhorted the brethren with many words and confirmed them. v. 33. And after they had tarried there a space, they were let go in peace from the brethren unto the apostles. v. 34. Notwithstanding it... read more

“Confirming the Churches” Acts 15:22-41 This letter was a noble document and fitted for its immediate purpose, but it does not apply directly to us, as the circumstances which called it forth have long since passed away. It was explicit in denying that the rite of circumcision was needful for salvation. It bore ample testimony to the character and work of the two great missionaries whose action had been impugned. It denounced the false teachers whose intrusion had broken the peace of the... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Acts 15:1-41

In the work among Gentiles the question of circumcision very naturally arose, and its difficulty is revealed in the calling of a council. That council seems to have opened with much desultory discussion. Then followed the serious contributions. Peter's address is chronicled. In it he faced a supreme fact, that in sending him to the Gentiles God had proved that He made no distinction. The next speakers were Paul and Barnabas, who simply repeated the story of their work. The summing up by James... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 15:1-35

The Ministry of Paul and Barnabas Results in the Counter-attack of Satan and the Gathering at Jerusalem (13:1-15:35). Leaving Antioch under the direct commissioning of the Holy Spirit, in a parallel commissioning to that of Jesus to His Apostles in Acts 1:8, Paul and Barnabas go first to Cyprus and then to Asia Minor with the Good News, and after rejection by the Jews enjoy a successful ministry among the Gentiles, returning to Antioch with rejoicing over what God has done. However, as in the... 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

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 15:32

‘And Judas and Silas, being themselves also prophets, exhorted the brethren with many words, and confirmed them.’ Meanwhile they also enjoyed the ministry of Judas and Silas who as prophets exhorted them and confirmed them in their faith. There was a mutual ‘sharing in common’ between the churches. This is a further illustration of the fact that the main task of prophets was not foretelling but forthtelling. The fact that the ministry of these two men could be so continually acceptable... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 15:30-35

Acts 15:30-Habakkuk : . Events at Antioch.— At Antioch on the arrival of the party, everything is quiet and decorous: there is no mention of the disturbers of Acts 15:1; the impression is given that the authority of the Mother Church was decisive to all. They rejoiced apparently on account of the freedom given from unnecessary restrictions to the Gentile members. The prophets held long discourses, as prophets were expected to do ( Didaché , 10:7 , 11 , 1 Thessalonians 5:19 f.). The prophets... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Acts 15:32

Prophets; not properly so called, from any gift of foretelling things to come, but as doctors and teachers in the church, Ephesians 4:11, expounding Moses and the prophets, and showing how and what they speak concerning Christ; proving out of them, that he was the Messiah, as Philip had done, Acts 8:35. Confirmed them: see Acts 14:22; Acts 18:23. read more
