For so has the Lord commanded us, saying,
I have set you to be a light of the Gentiles, that you should be for salvation unto the ends of the earth.
All Commentaries on Acts 13:47 Go To Acts 13
John Chrysostom
AD 407
Then why have ye not done this? It was indeed needful that the Gentiles should hear, and this not before you: it is your own doing, the before you. For so has the Lord commanded us: I have set you for a light of the Gentiles, that you should be for salvation, i.e. for knowledge which is unto salvation, and not merely of the Gentiles, but of all men, unto the ends of the earth— As many as were ordained unto eternal life
