Acts 8:21 - John Trapp Complete Commentary

Bible Comments

Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter: for thy heart is not right in the sight of God.

Ver. 21. Thou hast neither part nor lot] Neque pars, neque sors, no manner of interest in this faith, much less in this sacred office of preaching, and laying hands upon others. (Dictio proverbialis.) The Jews boast, that in Portugal and Spain they have millions of their race to whom they give complete dispensation to counterfeit Christianity, even to the degree of priesthood; and that none are discovered but some hot spirits, whose zeal cannot temporize. Are not these perfect Simoniacs?
