Commentary on Acts 16:40
'They went out of the prison, and entered into the house of Lydia: and when they had seen the brethren, they comforted them, and departed.' Despite official request to leave, Paul first strengthened the new church. His priorities were pastoral before political - encouraging believers mattered more than quick compliance with authorities. The visit to Lydia's house shows the church already meeting there.
