Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 18. - Because for for, A.V.; of thee testimony for thy testimony, A.V. and T.R. Get thee quickly, etc. The narrative in Acts 9:28-30 does not mention the vision, but gives the murderous opposition of the Hellenist Jews as the reason of Saul's departure from Jerusalem to Tarsus. Possibly, if it had not been for the Divine warning, the apostle would have braved the danger and lost his life.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(18)Get thee quickly out of Jerusalem.--It is obvious that this fits in better with the first hurried visit after St. Paul's conversion than with the second, when he came with Barnabas with alms for the sufferers from the famine. (See Note on Acts 11:30.)
