This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Act 13:47. Ἐντέταλται, hath enjoined) by sending us forth, Act 13:4, and by offering us the opportunity of fulfilling His will and prediction.-ἡμῖν, us) It often happens, that one and the same prophetical saying urges some rather than others to the fulfilment of itself. So it was that this saying urged Paul, as also that which he quotes in Rom 15:21. Another instance occurs in 2Ki 9:13; 2Ki 9:25 (The anointing of Jehu by the prophet is the occasion of Jehu’s companions putting him on the throne; and again, Elijah’s prophecy urges him to cast Jehoram’s corpse into the ground of Naboth).-τέθεικά σε εἰς-γῆς) Isa 49:6, ἰδοὺ δέδωκά σε εἰς διαθήκην γένους, εἰς φῶς-γῆς.-σε, Thee) the Messiah.
