Some Jews came from Antioch. Some think Paul's "thorn in the flesh" refers to these Jews. [compare Numbers 33:55: Joshua 23:13; 2 Timothy 4:14-17.] The Lystrans, frustrated because they were not permitted to worship Paul and Barnabas, were easily turned against them. This is the first injury Paul suffered for Christ (2 Corinthians 11:25). He got up. We are not told whether this was a miracle. When persecuted in one city, they would move on to another, as Christ had commanded.
