Contextual Overview

1 AND Paul and Bar''na-bas entered into the Jewish synagogue and addressed the people in such manner that a great many of the Jews and of the Greeks believed. 2 But the Jews who would not listen stirred up the Gentiles to oppress the brethren. 3 So they remained there for a long time, and spoke boldly concerning the LORD, and he gave them testimony to the word of his grace, by means of signs and wonders which he performed by their hands. 4 But the people of the city were divided: part held with the Jews, and part followed the apostles. 5 And they were menaced by both the Gentiles and the Jews with their leaders with disgrace and by threats to stone them with stones. 6 And when they became aware of it, they departed and took refuge in Ly''stra and Derbe, cities of Lyc-ao''ni-a, and the villages near by. 7 And there they preached the gospel.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And there they preached the Gospel. They did not sit still, nor hide themselves in these places; but, as in others, they preached the Gospel, the good news and glad tidings of the incarnation of Christ, of redemption, peace, and pardon, through his blood, justification by his righteousness, and spiritual and eternal salvation through him: in Beza's most ancient copy, and in one of Stephens's, these words are added, and which Bede also says were in the Greek copies in his time, "and the whole multitude were moved at their doctrines, and Paul and Barnabas continued at Lystra"; which agrees with what follows. It is very likely that many were converted in each of these cities, and in the adjacent country, and that churches were raised in these places; this seems manifest, from

Acts 14:20 Artemas, of whom mention is made in Titus 3:12 and is said to be one of the seventy disciples, is reported to be bishop of Lystra; Titus 3:12- :, though we meet with nothing in ecclesiastical history, concerning the churches in either of these places, until the "sixth" century; when in the fifth Roman synod under Symmachus, there were present the bishops of Lystra and Derbe, as also of Iconium and Larandas, which were likewise cities in Lycaonia q.

q Magdeburg. Hist. Eccles. cent. 6. c. 2. p. 4.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Acts 14:7. And there they preached the Gospel. — Wherever they went, they were always employed in their Master's work. Some MSS. of considerable note add here, and all the people were moved at their preaching, but Paul and Barnabas tarried at Lystra.
