Alexander of Jerusalem : Such was the case at Laranda, where Evelpis was thus exhorted by Neon; and at I conium, Paulinus was thus exhorted by Celsus; and at Synada, Theodorus also by Atticus, our blessed brethren. And it is probable that this is done in other places also, although we know not the fact. John Chrysostom : "And after the reading of the Law and the Prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent unto them, saying, Ye men and brethren, if ye have any word of exhortation for the people, say on." From this point, we learn the history of Paul's doings, as in what was said above we have learned not a little about Peter. — Homily on Acts 28 John Chrysostom : "And after the reading of the Law and the Prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent unto them, saying, Ye men and brethren, if ye have any word or exhortation for the people, say on." Behold how they do this without grudging, but no longer after this. If ye did wish this (really), there was more need to exhort. — Homily on Acts 28
