Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary

Untitled

Translated Open passage

In this chapter we have, I. Peter's necessary vindication of what he did in receiving Cornelius and his friends into the church, from the censure he lay under for it among the brethren, and their acquiescence in it, Ac 11:1-18. II. The good success of the gospel at Antioch, and the parts adjacent, Ac 11:19-21. III. The carrying on of the good work that was begun at Antioch, by the ministry of Barnabas first, and afterwards of Paul in conjunction with him, and the lasting name of Christian first given to the disciples there, Ac 11:22-26. IV. A prediction of an approaching famine, and the contribution that was made among the Gentile converts for the relief of the poor saints in Judea, upon that occasion, Ac 11:27-30.

Adam Clarke's Commentary and Critical Notes on the Bible

Acts 11 Introduction

Translated Open passage

Peter returns to Jerusalem, and is accused of having associated with the Gentiles, Romans 8:1-3. He defends himself by relating at large the whole business concerning Cornelius, Romans 8:4-17. His defense is accepted, and the whole Church glorifies God for having granted unto the Gentiles repentance unto life, Romans 8:18. An account of the proceedings of those who were scattered abroad by the persecution that was raised about Stephen; and how they had spread the Gospel among the circumcision, in Phoenice, Cyprus, and Antioch, Romans 8:19-21. The Church at Jerusalem, hearing of this, sends Barnabas to confirm them in the faith, Romans 8:22, Romans 8:23. His character, Romans 8:24. He goes to Tarsus to seek Saul, whom he brings to Antioch, where the disciples are first called Christians, Romans 8:25, Romans 8:26. Certain prophets foretell the dearth which afterwards took place in the reign of the Emperor Claudias, Romans 8:27, Romans 8:28. The disciples send relief to their poor brethren to Judea, by the hands of Barnabas and Saul, Romans 8:29, Romans 8:30.

Acts 11 Introduction

Translated Open passage

CHAPTER 11

Acts 11:8. κοινόν] Elz. has πᾶν κοινόν, against A B D E א, min. VSS. and Fathers. From Acts 10:14.

Acts 11:9. μοι] is wanting in A B א. min. Copt. Sahid. Arm. Vulg. Epiph. Deleted by Lachm. Tisch. It is an addition, in accordance with Acts 11:7.

Acts 11:10. The order ἀνεσπ. πάλιν is, according to preponderant evidence, to be adopted.

Acts 11:11. ἤμην] Lachm. Born. read ἦμεν, after A B D א, 40. Without attestation, doubtless, from the VSS.; but on account of its apparent irrelevancy, and on account of Acts 11:5, to be considered as the original.

Acts 11:12. μηδὲν διακρινόμενον] is, as already Mill saw, very suspicious (as an interpolation from Acts 10:20), for it is wholly wanting in D, Syr. p. Cant.; in A B א, loti. it is exchanged for μηδὲν διακρίνοντα or μ. διακρίναντα (so Lachm.), and in 33, 46, for μ. διακρινὁμενος. Tisch. and Born. have rejected it; de Wette declares himself for the reading of Lachm.

Acts 11:13. δέ is to be read instead of τέ, with Lachm. and Born., in accordance with preponderant authority.

After Ἰόππην, Elz. has ἄνδρας, an addition from Acts 10:5, which has against it A B D א, min. and most VSS.

Acts 11:17. δέ] is wanting in A B D א, min. VSS. and several Fathers. Deleted by Lachm. It was omitted as disturbing the construction.

Acts 11:18. ἐδόξαζον] The considerably attested ἐδοξασαν (Lachm.) has arisen from the preceding aorist.

Instead of ἄραγε, Lachm. has ἄρα, after A B D א, min. A neglect of the strengthening γε, which to the transcribers was less familiar with ἄρα in the N. T. (Matthew 7:20; Matthew 17:26; Acts 17:27).

Acts 11:19. Στεφάνῳ] Lachm. reads Στεφάνου, after A E, min. Theophyl., but this has been evidently introduced into the text as an emendatory gloss from erroneously taking ἐπί as denoting time.

Acts 11:20. ἐλθόντες] Elz. reads εἰσελθόντες, against decisive testimony.

Ἕλληνας] So A D* א** VSS. and Fathers. Already preferred by Grotius and Witsius, adopted by Griesb. Lachm. Tisch. Scholz. Born. But Elz. Matth. have Ἑλληνιστάς, which, in particular, Ammon (de Hellenistis Antioch. Erl. 1810, krit. Journ. I. 3, p. 213 ff.; Magaz. f. christl. Pred. III. 1, p. 222 f.) has defended, assuming two classes of Antiochene Jews, namely, Hebrew-speaking, who used the original text of the O. T., and Greek-speaking, who used the LXX. But see Schulthess, de Charism. Sp. St. p. 73 ff.; Rinck, Lucubr. crit. p. 65 f. The reading Ἕλληνας is necessary, since the announcement of the gospel to Hellenists, particularly at Antioch, could no longer now be anything surprising, and only Ἕλληνας exhausts the contrast to Ἰουδαίοις, Acts 11:20 (not Ἑβραίοις, as in Acts 6:1). Ἑλληνιστ. might easily arise from comparison with Acts 9:29, for which Cod. 40 testifies, when after ἐλάλουν it inserts καὶ συνεζήτουν.

Acts 11:22. διελθεῖν] is wanting in A B א, loti. Syr. and other VSS., and is deleted by Lachm. Omitted as superfluous.

Acts 11:25.[264] Ὁ ΒΑΡΝΆΒΑς and the twice-repeated ΑὐΤΌΝ are to be deleted, with Lachm. and Tisch., after A B א, al.; the former as the subject written on the margin (seeing that another subject immediately precedes), and the latter as a very usual (unnecessary) definition of the object.

Acts 11:26. αὐτούς] read with Lachm. Tisch. Born. αὐτοῖς, after A B E א, min. The accusative with the infinitive after ἘΓΈΝΕΤΟ was most familiar to the transcribers (Acts 9:3; Acts 9:32; Acts 9:37).

Lachm. and Tisch. have ΚΑΊ after ΑὐΤ., following A C א, Cant. Syr. p. Ath. Vig. Rightly; apparently occasioning confusion, it was omitted.

Acts 11:28. ΜΈΓΑΝ … ὍΣΤΙς] ΜΕΓΆΛΗΝ … ΤΙς is supported by the predominant testimony of A B D E א (E has ΜΈΓΑΝ … ἭΤΙς), min. Fathers, so that it is to be adopted, with Lachm. Tisch. Born., as in Luke 15:14 (see on that passage), and the masculine is to be considered as an emendation of ignorant transcribers.

After ΚΛΑΥΔΊΟΥ, Elz. has ΚΑΊΣΑΡΟς, an inserted gloss, to be rejected in conformity with A B D א, loti. 40, Copt. Aeth. Sahid. Arm. Vulg. Cant.

[264] Bornemann has the peculiar expansion of the simple text from D: ἀκούσας δὲ, ὅτι Σαῦλός ἐστιν εἰς Ταρσόν, ἐξῆλθεν ἀναζητῶν αὐτὸν καὶ ὡς συντυχὼν παρεκάλεσεν αὐτὸν ἐλθεῖν εἰς ʼΑντιόχειαν.

Ac 11:1-18.

PETER VINDICATES HIMSELF BEFORE THE CHURCH IN JERUSALEM FOR HIS PROCEDURE TOWARDS THE GENTILES.

1-11. the apostles and brethren . . . in Judea--rather, "throughout Judea."

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Acts 11:1

Translated Open passage

And the apostles and brethren - The Christians who Were in Judea.

Heard ... - So extraordinary an occurrence as that at Caesarea, the descent of the Holy Spirit on the Gentiles, and their reception into the church, would excite attention, and be likely to produce much sensitiveness in regard to the conduct of Peter and those with him. It was so contrary to all the ideas of the Jews, that it is not to be wondered at that it led to contention.

Adam Clarke's Commentary and Critical Notes on the Bible

Acts 11:1

Translated Open passage

And the apostles and brethren that were in Judea - According to Calmet, Judea is here put in opposition to Caesarea, which, though situated in Palestine, passed for a Greek city, being principally inhabited by Pagans, Greeks, or Syrians.

John Gill's Exposition of the Bible

Acts 11:1

Translated Open passage

And the apostles and brethren that were in Judea,.... The rest of the twelve apostles, and the private members of the churches that were in Judea, for there were in it now more churches than that at Jerusalem, Acts 9:31

heard that the Gentiles had also received the word of God; as well as Samaria, Acts 8:14 the news by some means or other were quickly brought to them, and no doubt but they also heard that they had received the Holy Ghost, his extraordinary gifts, as well as his special grace, though no mention is made of them.
