Atti 21:30 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 21:30

And all the city was moved, and the people ran together,
&c.] The outcry in the temple reached the ears of some that were without, and these alarmed others; so that the report of a disturbance in the temple soon went through the whole city; and brought people out of their houses, who ran together in great numbers, to see what was the matter:

and they took Paul and drew him out of the temple;
as unworthy to be in that holy place; and that it might not be defiled with his blood; for their intention was nothing less than to take away his life:

and forthwith the doors were shut;
not of themselves, as if there was something miraculous in it, as some have thought, but by the door keepers, the Levites; and which might be done, partly to prevent Paul's returning into it for refuge at the horns of the altar, and partly to keep out the Gentiles from coming in, they were alarmed with.

Atti 21:30 In-Context

28 gridando: Uomini Israeliti, venite al soccorso; costui è quell’uomo, che insegna per tutto a tutti una dottrina che è contro al popolo, e contro alla legge, e contro a questo luogo; ed oltre a ciò, ha eziandio menati de’ Greci dentro al tempio, ed ha contaminato questo santo luogo.
29 Perciocchè dinanzi avean veduto Trofimo Efesio nella città con Paolo, e pensavano ch’egli l’avesse menato dentro al tempio.
30 E tutta la cittĂ  fu commossa, e si fece un concorso di popolo; e, preso Paolo, lo trassero fuor del tempio; e subito le porte furon serrate.
31 Ora, com’essi cercavano d’ucciderlo, il grido salì al capitano della schiera, che tutta Gerusalemme era sottosopra.
32 Ed egli in quello stante prese de’ soldati, e de’ centurioni, e corse a’ Giudei. Ed essi, veduto il capitano, e i soldati, restarono di batter Paolo.
