Matthew Poole and continuators on Acts 18:13

13 Saying, This fellow perswadeth men to worship God contrary to the law.

Of the Romans, who, to avoid tumults and confusions, did forbid any to set up any new worship without leave; and the Iews in these parts having here no power to punish St. Paul as they had at Ierusalem, maliciously incite the Governour against him: Or by the Law here may be meant the Law of Moses, which they accuse Paul to have broken, and so not to be comprehended in that license which they had to exercise their Religion.
