ACC ~ Acts 28 v10

RECEIVING PAUL, THEY MUST ALSO HAVE RECEIVED THE FAITH. CHRYSOSTOM: “They presented,” it says, “many gifts to us.” Not that [Paul] received wages, God forbid, but as it is written, “The worker is worth his keep.”“When we sailed, they put on board whatever we needed.” It is clear that their hosts, who afforded them such hospitality, also received the word of the preaching. For they would not have been treated so kindly for three days had their hosts not believed strongly and shown the fruits of conversion. HOMILIES ON THE ACTS OF THE APOSTLES 54.
