Acts 2:10

Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt
Phrygia was a country in Asia, and had part of Galatia on the north, Lycaonia, Pisidia, and Mygdonia on the south, and on the east Cappadocia ^F24; here the Apostle Paul afterwards travelled, and strengthened the Christians; see ( Acts 16:6 ) ( 18:23 ) . Pamphylia, now called Setilia, is another country in Asia, formerly called Mopsopia ^F25; which had on the west Lycia, and part of Asia, on the north Galatia, on the east Cilicia, and part of Cappadocia, and on the south the sea of Pamphylia ^F26, of which mention is made in ( Acts 27:5 ) . The chief city in it was Perga, where was a temple of Diana ^F1, and here the Apostle Paul also was; see ( Acts 13:13 ) ( Acts 14:24 Acts 14:25 ) ( 15:38 ) . Others of these sojourning Jews lived in Egypt, which was a large country in Africa; which had on the east the deserts of Arabia, on the west Libya, on the south Ethiopia, and on the north the Mediterranean sea; hither many Jews were carried captive by Ptolomy Lagus, and these spoke the Egyptian language:

and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene;
there were others at Jerusalem, which came from hence, The Arabic version reads this clause, "and in the parts of Africa, which is our country"; and Pliny says ^F2, the Greeks call Africa, Libya. The Jews say ^F3, Libya in Egypt; and for proselytes from Libya, they wait three generations; that is, before they receive them: Cyrene, or Cyreniaca, which is no other than upper Libya, is called by Pliny {d}, the Pentapolitan country, from the five cities in it; Berenice, Arsinoe, Ptolemais, Apollonia, and Cyrene: to these are added,

and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes;
that is, as the Syriac version renders it, "those that came from Rome"; to which the Arabic agrees: they were natives and inhabitants of the city of Rome, though now they were at Jerusalem; and some of these were Jews by birth, and lineal descent, though born at Rome; and others were such as were proselytes of righteousness, who were originally Gentiles, but were now circumcised, and had embraced the Jewish religion; concerning such, (See Gill on Matthew 23:15). These doubtless spoke in the Roman, or Latin tongue.
