Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them,.... To the Jews in their synagogue; for though the Jews had put away the Gospel from them, and the apostle had turned to the Gentiles; yet he still retained a great affection for his countrymen the Jews, and as often as he had opportunity, attended their synagogues, in order to preach the Gospel to them;
and three sabbath days reasoned with them out of the Scriptures: that is, out of the Old Testament, concerning the Messiah, the characters of him, the work that he was to do, and how he was to suffer and die for the sins of men; and this he did three weeks running, going to their synagogue every sabbath day, when and where the Jews met for worship; and made use of books, which they allowed of, and of arguments they could not disprove.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
His manner was - His custom was to attend on the worship of the synagogue, and to preach the gospel to his countrymen first, Acts 9:20; Acts 13:5, Acts 13:14.
Reasoned with them - Discoursed to them, or attempted to prove that Jesus was the Messiah. The word used here (διελεÌγεÏο dielegeto) often means no more than âto make a public address or discourse.â See the notes on Acts 24:25.
Out of the scriptures - By many critics this is connected with the following verse, âOpening and alleging from the scriptures that Christ must needs have suffered, etc.â The sense is not varied materially by the change.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Acts 17:2. As his manner was — He constantly offered salvation first to the Jews; and for this purpose attended their Sabbath-days' meetings at their synagogues.
