This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
He hath built (αὐτὸς ᾠκοδόμησεν)
He is emphatic; himself, at his own expense.
A synagogue (τὴν συναγωγὴν)
The article, “the synagogue,” marks the particular synagogue which these elders represented. Hence Rev., rightly, “our synagogue.” “He did not merely avoid profaning the synagogue” (Bengel).
