Acts 13:26 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

Men and brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you feareth God, to you is the word of this salvation sent. Men and brethren - This should have been translated brethren simply. See the note on Acts 7:2.

Children of the stock of Abraham - All ye that are Jews.

And whosoever among you feared God - That is, all ye who are Gentiles, and are now proselytes to the Jewish religion.

The word of this salvation - The doctrine that contains the promise of deliverance from sin, and the means by which it is brought about; all which is founded on Jesus, of the stock of David, dying and rising again for the salvation of Jews and Gentiles.
