And believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women.)
Ver. 14. And believers were the more added] So little lost the Church by that dreadful doom that befell Ananias and Sapphira, Isaiah 26:9. Hypocrites are but the warts, or rather botches, of the Church. When God's judgments are upon them, the inhabitants of the earth will learn righteousness; they will wash their feet in the blood of the wicked, Psalms 58:10. Let the Lord but kill Jezebel's children with death, and then all the Churches will take knowledge that it is He that searcheth the reins and heart, and that giveth unto every man according to his works, Revelation 2:23 .
