Church Fathers on Acts 13:20

And after that He gave unto them judges about the space of four hundred and fifty years, until Samuel the prophet. Acts 13:20 Here he shows that God varied His dispensations towards them (at various times). And afterward they desired a king: and (still) not a word of their ingratitude, but throughout he speaks of the kindness of God.
