Hechos 19:6 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 19:6

And when Paul had laid his hands upon them
They having been before baptized, not by him, but by John, or one of his disciples, in the name of the Lord Jesus; just as Peter and John laid their hands upon the believing Samaritans, who had been before baptized by Philip, ( Acts 8:14-17 ) and the same extraordinary effects followed:

the Holy Ghost came on them;
in his extraordinary gifts, whose special grace they had before an experience of:
