Acts15:33
A space. For some time.
They were let go in peace. An expression implying that they departed with the affectionate regard of the Christians to whom they had ministered, and with their highest wishes for their prosperity, 1Cor 16:11, 2Jn 1:10. Silas however, it seems, chose to remain.
Unto the apostles. At Jerusalem. Many Mss., however, instead of "unto the apostles," read, "unto those who had sent them." The sense is not materially different.
(+) "tarried" "Abode" (++) "a space" "For some time" (|) "let go" "dismissed" (b) "peace" 1Cor 16:11, 2Jn 1:10
