(3) And upon the (b) first [day] of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul preached unto them, ready to depart on the morrow; and continued his speech until midnight.
(3) Assemblies in the night-time cannot be justly condemned, neither should they be, when the cause is good.
(b) Literally, "the first day of the Sabbath", that is, upon the Lord's day: so that by this place, and by (1 Corinthians 16:2) we properly understand that in those days the Christians habitually assembled themselves solemnly together upon that day.
