Acts 24:11 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

That thou mayest understand, either by what thou hast heard already, or by what the witnesses, when examined, will declare. There are yet but twelve days since I went up to Jerusalem; there were but twelve days since Paul's coming to Jerusalem; seven of them he had spent there, until the time of his purification was accomplished; and the other five days he had been in custody, and at Caesarea: by which St. Paul proves how unlikely it was, that in so short a time he, being a stranger in those parts, should raise any tumults. For to worship; he being so far from designing any mischief, that he only intended to worship God.

Acts 24:11

11 Because that thou mayest understand, that there are yet but twelve days since I went up to Jerusalem for to worship.
