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

‘But Paul and Barnabas tarried in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also.’ Everything now having settled down, and the crisis being over, Paul and Barnabas now returned to the situation as it had been in Acts 14:28. It was as though the crisis had never been. All was as it was before the interruption, with the added blessing that the issue had been resolved once and for all as far as they were concerned. They continued with their teaching and preaching of... 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 15:35

Judas only returned to Jerusalem, to acquaint the apostles with the reception their letter had met with, and what obedience was readily given to their decrees; so that when these went away the church at Antioch was not left destitute of faithful pastors. When God gives the word, great is the multitude of preachers, Psalms 68:11. read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Acts 15:1-41

Chapter 15And certain men which came down from Judea [to the church in Antioch] taught the brethren, and said, Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved ( Acts 15:1 ).Unfortunately, there are always those troublers who are going around trying to disrupt God's work among the body of Christ.

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Acts 15:1-41

Acts 15:1 . Certain men which came down from Judea. Epiphanius says, Cerinthus the heretic was one of the principals in this dissension. But they were, no doubt, of the devil’s sending, to disquiet the brethren, and distress the church. See the note on Acts 15:5. Except ye be circumcised. Here we find the jews at issue, and divided in sentiment on the grand point of admission into their religion. Some not only permitted those of other nations, who owned the true God, to live quietly among... read more
