And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
All Commentaries on Acts 16:30 Go To Acts 16
John Chrysostom
AD 407
Why, what had they said? Observe, he does not, on finding himself safe, think all is well; he is overcome with awe at the miraculous power.
Do you mark what happened in the former case, and what here? There a girl was released from a spirit, and they cast them into prison, because they had liberated her from the spirit. Here, they did but show the doors standing open, and it opened the doors of his heart, it loosed two sorts of chains; that (prisoner) kindled the (true) light; for the light in his heart was shining. And he sprang in, and fell before them; and he does not ask, How is this? What is this? But straightway he says, What must I do to be saved? What then answers Paul? Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you shall be saved, you and your house.
