Acts 15:33

And after they had tarried there a space, they were let go in peace from the brethren unto the apostles.

Ver. 33. They were let go in peace] i.e. Judas was, but not Silas, upon second thoughts,Acts 15:34. After their office put upon them by the synod was faithfully discharged, they did not give over the Lord's work and take their ease; but set themselves to do further service. The Roman generals, after they had once triumphed over their enemies, did no more service to the state. But Cato (of whom Lucan witnesseth that he did toti natum credere mundo) is worthily commended, for that after the honour of a triumph he was no less sedulous and solicitous of a public welfare than before: we must never think we have done enough for God.
