Acts 20:24 - Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown

Acts 20:24

22 And see, now ^aI go bound in the spirit to Jerusalem, not knowing the things that will happen to me there,

23 except that ^athe Holy Spirit testifies in every city, saying that chains and tribulations await me.

24 But ^anone of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself, ^bso that I may finish my race with joy, ^cand the ministry ^dwhich I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.

25 “And indeed, now I know that you all, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, will see my face no more.

26 Therefore I testify to you this day that I am ^ainnocent of the blood of all men.

27 For I have not shunned to declare to you ^athe whole counsel of God.

28 ^aTherefore take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit ^bhas made you overseers, to shepherd the church¹ of God ^cwhich He purchased ^dwith His own blood.

29 For I know this, that after my departure ^asavage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock.

Acts 20:24

But none of these things move me, neither, etc.—In this noble expression of absolute dedication to the service of Christ and preparedness for the worst that could befall him in such a cause, note (1) his jealousy for the peculiar character of his mission, as immediately from Christ Himself on which all the charges against him turned; (2) the burden of that Gospel which he preached—GRACE; it was "the Gospel of the Grace of God."
