Adam Clarke · 1762–1832
Acts 13:26 · Douay-Rheims
“Men, brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you fear God, to you the word of this salvation is sent.”
On this verse:
“Men and brethren - This should have been translated brethren simply. See the note on Act 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.”
