Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Acts 10:48

_ _ he commanded them to be baptized — not doing it with his own hands, as neither did Paul, save on rare occasions (1 Corinthians 1:14-17; compare Acts 2:38; John 4:2).

_ _ prayed ... him to tarry certain days — “golden days” [Bengel], spent, doubtless, in refreshing Christian fellowship, and in imparting and receiving fuller teaching on the several topics of the apostle’s discourse.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Acts 10:44-48.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Acts 10:48

In the name of the Lord — Which implies the Father who anointed him, and the Spirit with which he was anointed to his office. But as the Gentiles had before believed in God the Father, and could not but now believe in the Holy Ghost, under whose powerful influence they were at this very time, there was the less need of taking notice, that they were baptized into the belief and profession of the sacred Three: though doubtless the apostle administered the ordinances in that very form which Christ himself had prescribed.
