Sunday's: A period of intercessory prayer and fasting preceded the departure of the missionaries; in this context, the laying on of hands was basically an act of consecration, or a commendation to God’s grace (Acts 14:26) for the task at hand.
Acts 14: 21 - preached gospel, taught many 22 - confirmed souls, exhorting to continue in faith Ac 14:23 So when they had appointed elders in every church, and prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord in whom they had believed.
What does "them" modify? Is it "they", Paul and Barnabus, or is it elders and disciples in every church? I say the elders and disciples.
So Ac 14:26 From there they sailed to Antioch, where they had been commended to the grace of God for the work which they had completed.
is "they" still the elders, disciples, and members of the church in Antioch?
Or is it both the elders, disciples, and members were "commended" before, and also Paul and Barnabus which was spoken of now in v. 26?
