This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





Showed first unto them of Damascus; nigh unto which place he was first converted, taking the first opportunity to preach Christ: out of the abundance of his heart his mouth speaking.



And turn to God: as sin is a turning from God, so repentance is a turning (or rather returning) unto God.



Do works meet for repentance; such as became a true penitent; for as we must show our faith by our works, Jam_2:18, so we must show our repentance by our works also: for to say we are grieved for sin, and we hate sin, and yet to live in it, is but to deceive ourselves, and (what in us lay) to mock God.
