Contextual Overview

²² Then the apostles and elders, with the whole church, chose men from among themselves and sent them to An''ti-och with Paul and Bar''na-bas; namely, Judas who is called Bar''sa-bas and Silas, men who were leaders among the brethren: ²³ And they wrote a letter and sent it by them after this manner; The apostles and elders and brethren to the brethren of the Gentiles in An''ti-och and Sy''ria and Ci-li''ci-a, greetings. ²⁴ We have heard that certain men have gone out and disturbed you with words, thus upsetting your souls, saying, You must be circumcised, and keep the law: on these things we have never commanded them. ²⁵ Therefore, we have considered the matter while we are assembled, and we have chosen and sent men to you with our beloved Paul and Bar''na-bas, ²⁶ Men who have dedicated their lives for the name of our LORD Jesus Christ. ²⁷ And we have sent with them Judas and Silas, so that they may tell you the same things by word of mouth. ²⁸ For it is the will of the Holy Spirit and of us, to lay upon you no additional burden than these necessary things; ²⁹ That you abstain from sacrifices offered to idols, and from blood, and from animals strangled, and from fornication: when you keep yourselves from these things, you will do well. Remain steadfast in our LORD. ³⁰ Now when those who were sent came to An''ti-och and when the whole people were gathered together, they delivered the epistle: ³¹ And when they had read it, the people rejoiced and were comforted.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Men that have hazarded their lives,.... As at Antioch, in Pisidia, where a persecution was raised against them, and they were expelled out of the coasts of that place; and at Lystra, where Paul was stoned, and left for dead, Acts 13:50 and this they did, not for any sinister and selfish ends, for any worldly gain, or vain glory, and popular applause, but

for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ; for the sake of his Gospel, and the enlargement of his interest, and kingdom in the world; and therefore were worthy of esteem, and ought to be regarded and attended to, and greatly to be preferred to false teachers; who only sought themselves, their worldly honour, and ease, and would sacrifice nothing, nor hazard anything, for the sake of Christ.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Men that have hazarded their lives ... - See Acts 14:0: This was a noble testimony to the character of Barnabas and Paul. It was a commendation of them to the confidence of the churches, and an implied expression that they wished their authority to be regarded in the establishment and organization of the church.

For the name - In the cause of the Lord Jesus.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Acts 15:26. Men that have hazarded their lives — This was a high character of Paul and Barnabas: they had already suffered much in the cause of Christ, and exposed their lives to the most imminent danger, and were intent on the same work, notwithstanding the increasing dangers in the way.
