Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 21. - Made many disciples for taught many, A.V.; returned for returned again, A.V.; to Antioch for Antioch, A.V. Made many disciples (μαθητεύσαντες ἱκανοὺς); comp. Matthew 28:19. What admirable constancy thus to run fresh risks to life and limb in order to win souls to Christ!
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(21) And had taught many.--Better, made many disciples. The word is the same as in Matthew 28:19.

During this time the violence of the hostility of the Jews at Antioch and Iconium had probably subsided, and the Apostles could revisit those cities, as they retraced their steps, without any great danger.
