Sermon Bible Commentary - Acts 20:35

Acts 20:35 I. In the one word "blessed" the whole force of this sentence lies, What does "more blessed" mean? Is there any reference in it to enjoyment.

DISCOURSE: 1800MINISTERIAL FIDELITYActs 20:26-27. I take you to record this day, that I am pure from the blood of all men. For I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God.NO one can be conceived more averse to egotism than was the Apostle Paul.

Therefore watch, and remember, that, by the space of three years, I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears.IT is, for the most part, a blessing to mankind that they cannot look into futurity: for, on the one hand, they would have their present enjoyments almost entirely destroyed by the prospect of future ills, while, on the other hand, a prospect of remote good would prove but a small alleviation of their present troubles.... read more

The Jews were accustomed to have select passages of their law fastened upon their garments, in order that they might be continually reminded of their duty.

Scofield's Reference Notes - Acts 20:22

spirit Cf. Acts 21:4. In Acts 20:22 Paul's own spirit (See Scofield "Acts 20:22- :") is meant; in Acts 21:4 the Holy Spirit. Paul's motive in going to Jerusalem seems to have been his great affection for the Jews Romans 9:1-5 and his hope that gifts of the Gentile churches, sent by him to the poor saints at Jerusalem Romans 15:25-28 would open the hearts of the law-bound Jewish believers to the "gospel of the grace of God" Acts 20:24. read more
