This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
8 And they troubled the people and the rulers of the city, when they heard these things.
Ver. 8. And they troubled the people and the rulers] The devil and his agents, as they are of turbulent spirits, like Ishmael, Pope Urban (who was therefore called Turban, from his troublesomeness), and the Jesuits; so they love to fish in troubled waters, and to set all on a hurry by incensing rulers against the people of God, and seeking to persuade them that they are antimagistratical. Hence the devil again casteth some of them into prison, Rev_2:10; sc. by his imps and instruments armed with authority.
