Although it be not mentioned in this Chapter that Paul went up to Jerusalem, but was sent only with provisions to the poor brethren in Judea: yet have we also pro∣ved before, that at this journey he had his trance in the Temple, Acts 22. 17. and in
that trance he was rapt up into the third Heaven. The story of which he himself rela∣teth, 2 Cor. 12. 2. I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, whether in the body I can∣not tell, &c. And there he relateth also the story of the messenger of Satan, buffeting him, and himself praying, and God giving him a gracious answer: all which we shall ex∣plain, by Gods permission, in another place.
In this trance God bids him get out of Jerusalem, and gives him commission to go preach among the Gentiles, Acts 22. 18, 21. And so he returneth from Jerusalem to Antioch, where we shall have him the next year.
