Scofield's Reference Notes - Acts 15:19
Wherefore The scope of the decision goes far beyond the mere question of circumcision. The whole question of the relation of the law to Gentile believers had been put in issue (Acts 15:5), and their exemption is declared in the decision (Acts 15:19; Acts 15:24). The decision might be otherwise stated in the terms of Romans 6:14. "Ye are not under the law, but under grace." Gentile believers were to show grace by abstaining from the practices offensive to godly Jews. Acts 15:20; Acts 15:21; Acts... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Acts 15:1-41
Chapter 15And certain men which came down from Judea [to the church in Antioch] taught the brethren, and said, Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved ( Acts 15:1 ).Unfortunately, there are always those troublers who are going around trying to disrupt God's work among the body of Christ. When we were over a block away at the other church, sort of the early beginnings of the Jesus movement when so many hundreds of young people were coming to the Lord, and we were... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Acts 15:1-41
Acts 15:1 . Certain men which came down from Judea. Epiphanius says, Cerinthus the heretic was one of the principals in this dissension. But they were, no doubt, of the devil’s sending, to disquiet the brethren, and distress the church. See the note on Acts 15:5. Except ye be circumcised. Here we find the jews at issue, and divided in sentiment on the grand point of admission into their religion. Some not only permitted those of other nations, who owned the true God, to live quietly among... read more

Acts 15:3-6They therefore, being brought on their way.Working on the road1. For a little time the noise of controversy ceases. Paul and Barnabas might have taken a much shorter way to Jerusalem; but Paul, like the Master, always wished to do some work on the way. When Christ was apparently hastening to a particular locality, He would often on the road stop to do some intermediate miracle. So Paul said, “We will make this a missionary journey.” So they passed through Phoenicia and Samaria--the... read more

The Biblical Illustrator - Acts 15:7-11
Acts 15:7-11And when there had been much disputing, Peter rose up.Peter’s speechMark--I. The time when peter spoke. “When there had been much disputing.” That was the critical moment. Speeches acquire force from the time at which they are delivered. Wise men keep back as long as possible. Thus their wisdom goes for twice the value which it would be appraised at did they speak earlier in the discussion. Many a man who is not of first-rate ability allows all the ready tongues to talk first, to... read more
