All Commentaries on Acts 13:50 Go To Acts 13
John Chrysostom
AD 407
The devout women, (b) instead of the proselyte-women. They did not stop at envy, but added deeds also. (e) Do you see what they effected by their opposing the preaching? To what dishonor they brought these (honorable women)? But they shook off the dust of their feet against them, and came unto Iconium.
