Acts 14:20

as the disciples stood round about him—sorrowing. So his labors here had not been in vain: "Disciples" had been gathered, who now rallied around the bleeding body. And one appears to have been gained on this occasion, of far more importance than all the rest—TIMOTHEUS. See on Acts 16:1-3. (It could scarcely have been at the subsequent visit, Acts 14:21, for the reason given in II Timothy 3:10-11; while at the third visit, Acts 16:1-3, he was already a Christian).
