Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Acts 11:27

(27) Came prophets from Jerusalem.—The mission thus described was obviously a further sanction given by the Church at Jerusalem to the work that Saul and Barnabas were carrying on at Antioch. If we adopt the view suggested in the Note on Luke 10:1, that the Seventy were the representatives of the prophetic order, and were symbolically significant of the conversion of the Gentiles, it will seem probable that those who now came to Antioch belonged to that body, and rejoiced in what they found... read more

St. Barnabas' Exhortation Acts 11:22-23 A very great work had been going on in Antioch. There had been many signal conversions. It was after this 'Mission' and these conversions that Barnabas, an older minister, came to Antioch. I. What St. Barnabas Saw. He saw the real, secret spring, the very essence of it all. 'He saw the grace of God,' the free workings of God's own love, the decrees of God's sovereignty, the acting of God's omnipotence. 'And he was glad.' 'Glad' not only and so much... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Acts 11:26

Chapter 7THE HARVEST OF THE GENTILES.Acts 11:26THE eleventh chapter of the Acts is clearly divisible into two portions. There is first the narrative of St. Peter’s reception at Jerusalem after the conversion of Cornelius, and secondly the story of the origin of the Antiochene Church, the mother and metropolis of Gentile Christendom. They are distinct the one from the other, and yet they are closely connected together, for they both deal with the same great topic, the admission of the Gentiles... read more

11:27 {7} And in these days came prophets from Jerusalem unto Antioch.(7) God punishes his Church when he punishes the wicked, in his scourges and plagues which he sends upon the earth, in such a way that he nonetheless conveniently provides for it. read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 11:1-30

News of Peter's carrying the gospel to Gentiles had preceded him to Jerusalem. When he arrived there, therefore, he was faced by those who were specially zealous of the law, and who spoke accusingly of his entering the home of uncircumcised Gentiles and eating with them. This would not surprise him, for his attitude was just the same a short time before. Peter then rehearsed the entire experience to them, and the Spirit of God has seen fit to record this repetition of the matter from beginning... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Acts 11:19-30

THE CHURCH AT ANTIOCH By connecting the first verse of this lesson with Acts 8:4 , it will be seen that all intervening is a parenthesis, an important one indeed, but making it necessary now to return to the martyrdom of Stephen for a new start. Be sure to consult a map for the localities in Acts 11:19-20 . Antioch, now coming into prominence as the headquarters of the Gentile church, was a beautiful and influential city, but luxurious and immoral. It was founded about 300 B.C. Saul’s great... read more

Chapter 30 Prayer Almighty God, this is thine house, and the spirit of it is thine. Surely it is thine altogether. There is no unholy chamber in the Lord's great sanctuary. Are not all things cleansed with blood that are in the house of the Lord? are they not without spot or wrinkle or any such thing? and are not we ourselves called upon by the Spirit of the house to put on garments of righteousness, and clothing beautiful as thine own holiness? Is not this our calling in Christ Jesus the... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Acts 11:25-26

Then departed Barnabas to Tarsus, for to seek Saul: (26) And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch. As the Holy Ghost hath been pleased to have it recorded, where the honored spot was, from whence the Lord's family first derived the high privilege of being called Christians, I think it well merits our attention. It... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Acts 11:27-30

And in these days came prophets from Jerusalem unto Antioch. (28) And there stood up one of them named Agabus, and signified by the spirit that there should be great dearth throughout all the world: which came to pass in the days of Claudius Caesar. (29) Then the disciples, every man according to his ability, determined to send relief unto the brethren which dwelt in Judea: (30) Which also they did, and sent it to the elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul. The Prophets here spoken of,... read more
