ACTS 15:41 — KING JAMES VERSION 0
“And he went through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the churches.”
He went through Syria and Cilicia, strengthening the churches — the route northwestward through Syria and Cilicia follows the topography from Antioch toward Asia Minor, with strengthening (stereoō, to firm up) echoing the post-first-journey consolidation (14:22).
Church Fathers on Acts 15:41
And he went through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the Churches. Then came he to Derbe and Lystra. Acts 15:41 Mark the wisdom of Paul: he does not go to other cities before he has visited them which had received the Word. For it is folly to run at random. This let us also do: let us teach the first in the first place, that these may not become an hindrance to them that are to come after.
