This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

That is, "The apostles and disciples in this city were nothing discouraged with the Jews' blasphemies, oppositions, and persecutions, but were filled with spiritual joy that they had embraced the gospel, and went on courageously in the profession of it."

Learn thence, that God's grace, and the church's joy, may and doth increase under the greatest opposition and persecutions of men. Infinite wisdom and sovereign power knows how to overrule the contradiction of sinners, for glory to himself, and good to his church.
