Acts 17:27

That they should seek the Lord,— Dr. Heylin renders this verse, That they should seek God so as to feel and find him: who is indeed already not far from any of us. The word 'Ει, here, says he, is the same as the word οτι. See ch. Acts 26:8. The word Ψηλαφησειαν, imports, actually feeling. So it is rendered handle me, Luke 24:39. The same word is used Joshua 16:26 where Samson says, suffer me that I may feel the pillars. I have been particular, says Dr. Heylin, in my remarks upon this verse, because I am very desirous to draw the reader's attention to it.
