Excerpt from A Critical and Exegetical Commentary on the Acts of the Apostles, Vol. 2The church is here seen in a new and important aspect as a missionary church. Hitherto Christianity had been pro pagated in a measure by informal efforts and casual occur rences, the persecution at Jerusalem having given rise to the dispersion of the Christians, and the di¿usion of their opinions. But now the church at Antioch plans measures and makes regular efforts to extend the gospel among the heathen. Paul and Barnabas are sent forth as the first Christian missionaries - the forerunners of that noble band of Christian heroes who sacrifice everything in order to difiuse the unsearchable riches of Christ among the Gentiles.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
