Albert Barnes Commentary Acts 19:32

"Some therefore cried one thing, and some another: for the assembly was in confusion; and the more part knew not wherefore they were come together." — Acts 19:32 (ASV)

Some therefore cried one thing, etc. This is an admirable description of a mob, assembled for what purpose they did not know, but agitated by passions, conflicts, and tumults.

And the more part knew not, etc. The greater part did not know. They had been drawn together by the noise and excitement; but a small part would know the real cause of the commotion. This is usually the case in tumultuous meetings.
