Barnes New Testament Notes by Albert Barnes

THE ACTS OF THE APOSTLES - Chapter 16 - Verse 14

Verse 14. A seller of purple. Purple was a most valuable colour, obtained usually from shell-fish. It was chiefly worn by princes, and by the rich; and the traffic in it might be very profitable.

The city of Thyatira. This was a city of Lydia, in Asia Minor, now called Ak-hisar. The art of dying was particularly cultivated, as appears from an inscription found there. (See Kuinoel.)

Which worshipped God. A religious woman; a proselyte. See Barnes |Ac 13:16|

Whose heart the Lord opened. See Barnes |Lu 24:45|.

{a} |the Lord opened| Lu 24:45
