Acts 16:10
_ _ And after he had seen the vision, immediately we endeavoured to go into Macedonia — The “we,” here first introduced, is a modest intimation that the historian himself had now joined the missionary party. (The modern objections to this are quite frivolous). Whether Paul’s broken health had anything to do with this arrangement for having “the beloved physician” with him [Wies], can never be known with certainty; but that he would deem himself honored in taking care of so precious a life, there can be no doubt. |
Acts 16:10
We sought to go into Macedonia — This is the first place in which St. Luke intimates his attendance on the apostle. And here he does it only in an oblique manner. Nor does he throughout the history once mention his own name, or any one thing which he did or said for the service of Christianity; though Paul speaks of him in the most honourable terms, Colossians 4:14; 2 Timothy 4:11; and probably as the brother whose praise in the Gospel went through all the Churches, 2 Corinthians 8:18. The same remark may be made on the rest of the sacred historians, who every one of them show the like amiable modesty. |
Acts 16:10
(6) And after he had seen the vision, immediately we endeavoured to go into Macedonia, assuredly gathering that the Lord had called us for to preach the gospel unto them.
(6) The Saints did not easily believe every vision. |
- immediately:
Acts 10:29 Therefore came I [unto you] without gainsaying, as soon as I was sent for: I ask therefore for what intent ye have sent for me?
Acts 26:13 At midday, O king, I saw in the way a light from heaven, above the brightness of the sun, shining round about me and them which journeyed with me.
Psalms 119:60 I made haste, and delayed not to keep thy commandments.
Proverbs 3:27-28 Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, when it is in the power of thine hand to do [it]. ... Say not unto thy neighbour, Go, and come again, and to morrow I will give; when thou hast it by thee.
2 Corinthians 2:12-13 Furthermore, when I came to Troas to [preach] Christ's gospel, and a door was opened unto me of the Lord, ... I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother: but taking my leave of them, I went from thence into Macedonia.
