Acts 5:42 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

This is the same with what we read Acts 20:20, publicly, and from house to house; that is, in the temple, and public places, they preached unto the Jews; and in more private places, (or houses), where they saw it needful; unto such they conversed with. They visited their flock, and instructed, exhorted, comforted them as their condition required. See the power of the grace of God; these were the men who forsook Christ when the soldiers came to apprehend him, they durst not be seen in his company; yet now they profess his name, and abide by their profession, though they are derided and beaten for it.

Acts 5:42

42 And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.
