Albert Barnes Commentary Acts 26:20

"but declared both to them of Damascus first and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the country of Judaea, and also to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, doing works worthy of repentance." — Acts 26:20 (ASV)

See Acts 9:20-23. The 20th verse contains a summary of his labors in obedience to the command of the Lord Jesus. His argument is that the Lord Jesus had from heaven commanded him to do this, and that he had done no more than to obey his injunction.

• "shewed" / "declared"
• "first": See Acts 9:19
• "works": See Matthew 3:8
• "meet for" / "worthy of"
