Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 25. - Having come to for being assembled with, A.V.; to choose out men and send them for to send chosen men, A.V. (see note on ver. 22). Having come, etc. The Greek is capable of either meaning. Alford prefers that of the A.V. Others think that stress is laid upon the decree being unanimous. Our beloved Barnabas and Paul. James and the council thus gave their full and open support to Barnabas and Paul. Observe that Barnabas is named first, as in ver. 12.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(25) Being assembled with one accord.--Literally, being of one mind, unanimously.To send chosen men unto you.--Literally, to choose men and send them unto you. The men, are, of course, Barsabas and Silas.With our beloved Barnabas and Paul.--The order in which the names stand is, perhaps, characteristic of the Church of Jerusalem, to whom Barnabas was still the more conspicuous teacher of the two. The way in which the two are named may be taken as illustrating St. Paul's statement that the "pillars" of the Church of Jerusalem gave to him and Barnabas the "right hand of fellowship" (Galatians 2:9).
