Gill's Notes on the Bible
And when they were come to Jerusalem,.... Paul and Barnabas, and the rest that came from Antioch with them:
they were received of the church; that is, that was at Jerusalem, in a very kind and respectful manner; they were received into their houses, and accommodated with everything convenient for them:
and of the apostles; particularly James, and Cephas, and John, who gave to Paul and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, in token of their approbation of them, affection for them, and agreement with them:
and elders: the other ministers of the Gospel who preached in that place:
and they declared all things that God had done with them: just as they did to the church at Antioch, when they returned from their travels, :-, the Arabic version here adds, as there, "and that God had opened to the Gentiles the door of faith."
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
They were received of the church - By the church, in a hospitable and friendly manner. They were acknowledged as Christian brethren, and received with Christian kindness. See Galatians 2:9.
And they declared - Paul and Barnabas, and those with them. That is, they stated the case; the remarkable conversion of the Gentiles, the evidence of their piety, and the origin of the present dispute.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Acts 15:4. They were received of the Church — The whole body of Christian believers.
The apostles — Either the whole or part of the twelve; though we read of none but John, Peter, and James. See Galatians 2:9.
And elders — Those who were officers in the Church, under the apostles.
They declared — To this council they gave a succinct account of the great work which God had wrought by them among the Gentiles. This was St. Paul's third journey to Jerusalem after his conversion. See an account of his first journey, Acts 9:26, and of his second in Acts 11:30.
