Verse 16
16 And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.
Ver. 16. Wash away thy sins ] By being inwardly baptized in the blood of Christ, by his merit and spirit. For there is baptismus flaminis et baptismus fluminis, a baptism of fire and water, Matthew 3:11 ; hence we read of baptisms, Hebrews 6:2 , and of the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost Titus 3:5 . See Trapp on " Act 2:38 "
