Commentary on Acts 17:12

Theological / Devotional

Therefore. As a result of diligent, daily searching of the Scriptures many believed the gospel message. The Bible will still bring conviction and conversion to those who sincerely search its pages for truth.

Many of them believed. In contrast with “some of them believed” (v. 4).

Honourable women. That is, women of good rank or standing, distinguished for their influence and wealth (cf. on ch. 13:50).

Which were Greeks. The phrase refers especially to the women, but it is probable that the men were also included (see on v. 4).
