Commentaries and Concordances

GSB:

14:2 But the {b} unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles, and made their minds evil affected against the brethren.
(b) Who did not obey the doctrine.

PNT:

14:2 The unbelieving Jews. Here, as elsewhere, there was division. Those who stubbornly rejected the gospel were filled with hatred and opposed in every possible way.
Stirred up the Gentiles. As they could do nothing without the aid of the Gentiles in that Gentile city, the Jews sought to prejudice them. Notwithstanding, for a long time, Paul and Barnabas, continued to preach there with great success.

MHC:

14:1-7 The apostles spake so plainly, with such evidence and proof of the Spirit, and with such power; so warmly, and with such concern for the souls of men; that those who heard them could not but say, God was with them of a truth. Yet the success was not to be reckoned to the manner of their preaching, but to the Spirit of God who used that means. Perseverance in doing good, amidst dangers and hardships, is a blessed evidence of grace. Wherever God's servants are driven, they should seek to declare the truth. When they went on in Christ's name and strength, he failed not to give testimony to the word of his grace. He has assured us it is the word of God, and that we may venture our souls upon it. The Gentiles and Jews were at enmity with one another, yet united against Christians. If the church's enemies join to destroy it, shall not its friends unite for its preservation? God has a shelter for his people in a storm; he is, and will be their Hiding-place. In times of persecution, believers may see cause to quit a spot, though they do not quit their Master's work.
