Acts 19:39 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 19:39

But if ye inquire anything concerning other matters
Than what belongs to the craft and business of Demetrius, and the artificers:

it shall be determined in a lawful assembly;
that is, called together according to law, and who have a right to hear, try, and judge causes, which such a confused lawless assembly as this in the theatre had not.

Acts 19:39 In-Context

37 You brought these men here, but they have not said anything evil against our goddess or stolen anything from her temple.
38 If Demetrius and those who work with him have a charge against anyone they should go to the courts and judges where they can argue with each other.
39 If there is something else you want to talk about, it can be decided at the regular town meeting of the people.
40 I say this because some people might see this trouble today and say that we are rioting. We could not explain this, because there is no real reason for this meeting."
41 After the city clerk said these things, he told the people to go home.
