Blasphemed; they blasphemed Paul, miscalling of him, but especially Christ, whose dishonour grieved Paul most. He shook his raiment; his upper garment, as the manner was, Matthew 26:65, that none of the dust of that place where such blasphemy was spoken might stick unto him. See Acts 13:51. Your blood be upon your own heads; or, You are guilty of your own deaths and damnation, 2 Samuel 1:16 Matthew 27:25; Felo de se. This expression is borrowed from the witnesses laying their hands on the head of the guilty person; or the sacrificer's laying his hand on the head of the beast which was to be slain; Exodus 29:10 Leviticus 1:4. I am clean; free from their blood, or the loss of their souls, having warned them, and shown the way of life unto them. Ezekiel 33:4; he had blown the trumpet, and warned the people.
