Matthew Poole and continuators on 2 Corinthians 7:5

5 For when we were come into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest , but we were troubled on every side , without were fightings , within were fears .

Of this motion of the Apostles into Macedonia, what he did and suffered there, we have a short account Acts 20. He saith, His flesh had no rest, he met with incessant Storms of persecution:

and was troubled both by Iews and Gentiles in all places where he came.

By persons that were without the Christian Church; such were the generality of the Jews and Gentiles;

and by false Brethren within, or with his own fears, lest those violent dealings should be temptations to Christians, being yet tender and young in the Faith, to relapse and Apostatize.
