Verse 23
23 And they appointed two, Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.
Ver. 23. Joseph called Barsabas ] The centurists think that this Joseph Barsabas was the same with that Joses called Barnabas afterwards by the apostles, Acts 4:36 . This Joseph, seeing it was God’s mind not to make choice of him now to succeed Judas in the apostleship, was content with a lower condition; therefore afterwards God called him to that high and honourable office of an apostle.
