John Chrysostom, on Acts 13:5
John Chrysostom · A.D. 347–407
Acts 13:5 · Douay-Rheims
“And when they were come to Salamina, they preached the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews. And they had John also in the ministry.”
On this verse:
“"And when they were come to Salamis," the metropolis of Cyprus, "they preached the word of God." They had spent a year in Antioch: it behooved that they should go hither also (to Cyprus) and not sit permanently where they were (the converts in Cyprus): needed greater teachers. See too how they remain no time in Seleucia, knowing that (the people there) might have reaped much benefit from the neighboring city (of Antioch): but they hasten on to the more pressing duties. When they came to the metropolis of the island, they were earnest to disabuse the proconsul.”
