Private to you. Anything you write on this verse, here or while reading, shows up here and in My study.
But on the next day they left the horsemen to go with him, and returned to the barracks.
The next day they returned to the barracks and let the horsemen go on with him.
On the morrow they left the horsemen to go with him, and returned to the castle:
But on the morrow they left the horsemen to go with him, and returned to the castle:
But on the day after, they sent the horsemen on with him, and went back to their place:
Tap a word to see what it means and everywhere else it's used.
Like some king whom his body-guards escort, so did these convey Paul; in such numbers too, and by night, for fear of the wrath of the people. Now then you will say that they have got him out of the city, they desist from their violence? No indeed. But the tribune would not have sent him off with such care for his safety, but that while he himself had found nothing amiss in him, he knew the murderous disposition of his adversaries.
Matthew Henry · Verses 25–35
God has instruments for every work. The natural abilities and moral virtues of the heathens often have been employed to protect his persecuted servants. Even the men of the world can discern between the conscientious conduct of upright believers, and the zeal of false professors, though they disregard or understand not their doctrinal principles. All hearts are in God's hand, and those are blessed who put their trust in him, and commit their ways unto him.
