SEV Biblia, Chapter 15:33
Y pasando allí algn tiempo, fueron enviados de los hermanos a los apstoles en paz.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Acts 15:33
Verse 33. They were let go] That is, both had liberty to depart; but Silas chose to stay a little longer with the brethren.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 33. And after they had tarried there a space , etc.] How long is not certain; the Arabic version renders it a year; and it is probable enough, they might stay there so long, till things were thoroughly settled, which were thrown into great disorder and confusion, by the pleaders for circumcision: they were let go in peace ; that is, they were dismissed, and went away with the leave and consent of the church; who returned them thanks for the service and good offices they had done them, and wished them all peace, prosperity, and happiness, both in soul and body, and great success in their ministrations wherever they went: and as they were dismissed in peace, they left the church in perfect peace; an end being put to the controversy about circumcision, which was raised among them; and the members of the church being agreed in their sentiments, and heartily united in their affections to one another: and thus Judas and Silas were honourably dismissed from the brethren , at Antioch, to the Apostles , at Jerusalem; the Alexandrian copy, and Bezas ancient copy, the Vulgate Latin, and Ethiopic versions, read, to them that sent them; and so include, with the apostles, the elders, and brethren at Jerusalem, who wrote the letter to the church at Antioch, and sent it by them; and it was proper that they should return to them, and give them an account of the success of it, how it was received, and what good it had done.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 22-35 - Being warranted to declare themselves directed by the immediat influence of the Holy Ghost, the apostles and disciples were assure that it seemed good unto God the Holy Spirit, as well as to them, to lay upon the converts no other burden than the things before mentioned which were necessary, either on their own account, or from presen circumstances. It was a comfort to hear that carnal ordinances were n longer imposed on them, which perplexed the conscience, but could no purify or pacify it; and that those who troubled their minds wer silenced, so that the peace of the church was restored, and that whic threatened division was removed. All this was consolation for whic they blessed God. Many others were at Antioch. Where many labour in the word and doctrine, yet there may be opportunity for us: the zeal an usefulness of others should stir us up, not lay us asleep.
