acts 26:29 And Paul said, I would to God, that not only thou, but also all that hear me this day, were both almost, and altogether such as I am, except these bonds. - Free Bible Online

acts 26:29 And Paul [said], "I would to God, that whether in a short or long time, not only you, but also all who hear me this day, might become such as I am, except for these chains."


      29. I would to God, &c.--What unequalled magnanimity does this speech breathe! Only his Master ever towered above this.
      not only . . . almost . . . but altogether--or, "whether soon or late," or "with little or much difficulty."
      except these bonds--doubtless holding up his two chained hands (see on Ac 12:6): which in closing such a noble utterance must have had an electrical effect.
