Notes, Critical and Explanatory, on the Holy Scriptures

G. P. "many worthy deeds are done unto this nation." The Alexandrian and Laudian manuscripts have S'iopd-a>/udTa>v : -which corresponds with the Vulgate. Calvin approves of the Vulgate reading, as corresponding with the meaning of the sacred historian. Felix was praised by Tertullus, as having introduced many reforms in the administration.

G. P. " sedition." The plural form is found in the Alexandrian and Laudian manuscripts, and in the Memphitic version.

G. P. have no mention of sedition here.

To give alms, make offerings, and fulfil vows. The text does not mention vows.

Felix appears to have been absent from Cesarea for some days, and to have returned in company with his wife.

Five days had elapsed, from the time of his arrest, which had taken place seven days after he had come to Jerusalem.
