Luke saith afterwards that Paul went in and out with the disciples, which speech signifieth amongst the Hebrews familiarity, as the inhabitants of cities are said to go in and out at the gates of the city. Therefore after that Paul was commended by the testimony of Barnabas, he began to be counted one of the flock, that he might be thoroughly known to the Church. Luke saith again that he dealt boldly in the name of the Lord, by which words he commendeth his (stoutness and) courage in professing the gospel. For he durst never have whispered amidst so many lets, unless he had been endowed with rare constancy. Nevertheless, all men are taught what they ought to do; to wit, every man according to the measure of his faith. For though all be not Pauls, yet the faith of Christ ought to engender in our minds so great boldness, that we be not altogether dumb when we have need to speak. I take the name of the Lord in this place for the profession of the gospel; in this sense, that Paul defended Christ’s cause manfully. <\/p>\n (28) Coming in and going out.<\/strong>The words, like the kindred phrase in Act. 1:21<\/span>, are used to imply a certain undefined frequency of intercourse. From Gal. 1:18<\/span> we learn that the whole duration of the visit was not more than fifteen days.<\/p>\n ‘And he was with them going in and going out at Jerusalem.’<\/p>\n So he walked in full fellowship with the church in Jerusalem, and went about with many of its members, being one with them in all that they did for the short while that he was there.<\/p>\n Act 9:28-30<\/span> . . . .] See on Act 1:21<\/span> .

On account of Gal 1:2-7<\/span> it is to be assumed that the apostle journeyed from Caesarea (see on Act 8:40<\/span> ) to Tarsus, not by sea, but by land, along the Mediterranean coast through Syria; and not, with Calovius and Olshausen, that here Caesarea Philippi on the borders of Syria is to be understood as meant. The reader cannot here, any more than in Act 8:40<\/span> , find any occasion in the text to understand otherwise than as the celebrated capital; it is more probable, too, that Paul avoided the closer vicinity of Damascus.<\/p>\n How natural it was to his heart, now that he was recognised by his older colleagues in Jerusalem but persecuted by the Jews, to bring the salvation in Christ, first of all, to the knowledge of his beloved native region! And doubtless the first churches of Cilicia owed their origin to his abode at that time in his native country.<\/p>\n 28 And he was with them coming in and going out at Jerusalem. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n Ver. 28.

Though the brethren, even at the solicitation of Barnabas, may have received him with some misgivings, the course he pursued soon won their confidence. (28) “And he was with them coming in and going out in Jerusalem, (29) and spoke boldly in the name of the Lord Jesus, and disputed against the Hellenists; but they undertook to kill him.” During his three years’ absence from Jerusalem, the persecution of which Saul had been the leader had so far abated that the Hellenists were once more willing to debate the points at issue. But they found in their new opponent one equally invincible with Stephen, and, in the madness of defeat, resolved that Stephen’s fate should be his. <\/p>\n 9:28 {7} And he was {l} with them coming in and going out at Jerusalem.<\/p>\n (7) The steadfast servants of God must look out for danger after danger: yet God watches out for them.<\/p>\n (l) With Peter and James, for he says that he saw none of the apostles but them; Gal 1:18-19 .<\/p>\n While Saul was in Jerusalem he resumed Stephen’s work of debating the Hellenistic Jews. He was himself a Hellenist, as Stephen apparently was, having been born and reared in Tarsus. Paul described himself as a Hebrew of the Hebrews (Php 3:5; cf. 2Co 11:22) by which he meant that his training in Jerusalem and his sympathies were more in line with the Hebrews than with the Hellenists. At first he enjoyed freedom in the city, but soon the unbelieving Jews tried to silence him too. Evidently Saul continued evangelizing in Jerusalem until it became obvious to the other believers that he must leave immediately or suffer death as Stephen had. They probably envisioned a recurrence of the persecution of the disciples that followed Stephen’s martyrdom.<\/p>\n And he was with them coming in and going out at Jerusalem. 28.
