Acts 13:43

Now when the congregation was broken up, many of the Jews and religious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas: who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.

Now when the congregation was broken up, many of the Jews and religious proselytes - won to the Gospel, and clinging to their spiritual benefactors,

Followed Paul and Barnabas - these names being now and henceforward, with one exception inverted (see the note at Acts 14:14),

Who speaking to them - following up the discourse in the synagogue by some further words of counsel and Who speaking to them - following up the discourse in the synagogue by some further words of counsel and encouragement,

Persuaded [ epeithon (G3982 ), or 'urged'] them (as in Acts 19:8; Acts 28:23)

To continue in the grace of God - not in 'the Gospel' (objectively), as the fruit of God's undeserved favour (as Hackett takes it), but 'in the (experienced) grace of God,' which through the Gospel had taken possession of them (subjectively-as Calvin and Bengal view it).

Next sabbath nearly all the city flock to hear the word of God -Enraged at this, the Jews oppose and malign the truth-whereupon Paul and Barnabas, with solemn protestation turn to the Gentiles, and with such success that the rage of their Jewish enemies causes their expulsion-They shake off the dust of their feet against them, while the new converts are filed with joy and with the Holy Spirit (13:44-52)
