Matthew Poole and continuators on Acts 18:9

9 Then spake the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace:

As Chap. 16.9. it may be by an Angel.

'Tis doubled again and again, as of greatest consequence, 1. To the Corinthians, whose Salvation by this means might be procured. 2. To Paul himself, whose Soul howsoever should be delivered, he having discharged his duty, Chap. 20.26, 27. The fierceness of the enemies of God, and his Truth, should kindle a greater fervour in his Servants for his Glory. Should Satan have better Servants than God? Should they dare for their Master, beyond what the Servants of God are willing to do or suffer for him? Isa. 62.1. Ier. 1.17, 18.
