 It will be remarked in this interesting history, that at the moment when Paul might have been the most troubled, when his course was perhaps the least evidently according to the power of the Spirit, when he brought disorder into the council by using arguments which afterwards he hesitates himself entirely to justify—it is then that the Lord, full of grace, appears to him to encourage and strengthen him. (Acts 26 by J.N. Darby)
 Truly the Lord is good: not a word of blame; nothing but assurance of help, and this by so remarkable a manifestation at the very time when discouragement would have been natural. (Acts 23:10-22 by W. Kelly)
 This was evidently then the corrected and proper scope of Paul’s allotted sphere: Jerusalem was outside it. (Acts 23:10-22 by W. Kelly)
