Acts13:42
42 And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath.
Or as some read, the Apostles, Paul and Barnabas, were gone out of the Synagogue of the Iews.
Proselites, or such devout persons formerly spoken of, who had relinquished Paganism, and came to be instructed in the knowledge of the true God by the Iews.
Or in some day betwixt the Sabbaths; that the Apostles took all advantages, if there were a Festival (which was also called a Sabbath, Levit. 16.31. and in the 23. Chap. of Levit. frequently) they would Preach in season and out of season; howsoever, because we find the Apostles did meet again with them on that day seven-night after, it is most probable that their desire was so to be understood, See verse 44.
Marginal references: Or, In the week between, or in the Sabbath betwe[illegible: 2 letters].
