Barnes New Testament Notes by Albert Barnes

THE ACTS OF THE APOSTLES - Chapter 19 - Verse 17

Verse 17. The name of the Lord Jesus was magnified. Acquired increasing honour. The transaction showed that the miracles performed in the name of the Lord Jesus, by Paul, were real, and were wrought in attestation of the truth of the doctrine which he taught. Impostors could not work such miracles; and they who pretended to be able to do it only exposed themselves to the rage of the evil spirits. It was thus shown that there was a real, vital difference between Paul and these impostors; and their failure only served to extend his reputation and the power of the gospel.

{a} |fear fell| Lu 1:65; Ac 2:43; 5:5,11
