Jamieson, Fausset & Brown, on Acts 8:6
Jamieson, Fausset & Brown · 1871
Acts 8:6 · Douay-Rheims
“And the people with one accord were attentive to those things which were said by Philip, hearing, and seeing the miracles which he did.”
On this verse:
“the people with one accord gave heed to . . . Philip--the way being prepared perhaps by the fruits of our Lord's sojourn, as He Himself seems to intimate (see on Joh 4:31-38). But "we may mark the providence of God in sending a Grecian, or a Hellenistic Jew, to a people who from national antipathy would have been unlikely to attend to a native of Judea" [WEBSTER and WILKINSON].”
