24 Provide horses for Paul so that he may be taken safely to Governor Felix."
24 And provide them beasts, that they may set Paul on, and bring him safe unto Felix the governor.
24 Also provide mounts for Paul to ride and bring him safely to Felix the governor."
24 And you'll need a couple of mules for Paul and his gear. We're going to present this man safe and sound to Governor Felix."
24 and provide mounts to set Paul on, and bring him safely to Felix the governor."
24 Provide horses for Paul to ride, and get him safely to Governor Felix."
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Acts 23:24
Commentary on Acts 23:12-24
(Read Acts 23:12-24)
False religious principles, adopted by carnal men, urge on to such wickedness, as human nature would hardly be supposed capable of. Yet the Lord readily disappoints the best concerted schemes of iniquity. Paul knew that the Divine providence acts by reasonable and prudent means; and that, if he neglected to use the means in his power, he could not expect God's providence to work on his behalf. He who will not help himself according to his means and power, has neither reason nor revelation to assure him that he shall receive help from God. Believing in the Lord, we and ours shall be kept from every evil work, and kept to his kingdom. Heavenly Father, give us by thy Holy Spirit, for Christ's sake, this precious faith.
