Acts 16:33

And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, immediately.

AD 1849
Was baptized, being first told what he was to believe, and do. (Witham) Hence Catholics draw a very plausible argument for the baptism of infants, as it is very probable there were some infants in the family. See Estius, in different location.

John Chrysostom

AD 407

John Chrysostom

AD 407
He washed them, and was himself baptized, he and his house. And when he had brought them into his house, he set meat before them, and rejoiced, believing in God with all his house. And when it was day, the magistrates sent the sergeants, saying, Let those men go.
