Matthew Poole and continuators on Acts 13:26

26 Men and brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you, feareth God, to you is the word of this salvation sent.

He speaks to the Iews according as the manner was amongst them; to the Iews he become as a Iew.

Some think, the devout Pisidians, or men of that Countrey, are here meant; but rather it may insinuate the Apostles hope concerning these Iews, that they were such as feared God; which hope they ought the rather to have carefully answered.

1. Christ who is the incarnate word, or the word made flesh, Iohn 1.14. or the Gospel, which is glad tidings of Salvation; as if the Apostle had minded them; that it was not any business which belonged unto others alone, which he was speaking about; but of such things as pertained unto their Salvation; and such a Salvation (this Salvation) as never greater was, or ever will be published; this is certain, that we are concerned in it for our selves, if we accept or neglect this Salvation, it is for our selves: Oh that in this respect self-interest were more prevalent with us!
