On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

This was strange, that so good a man as Paul should have nobody to own him, even at Rome, where there were many Christians, whose faith was spoken of throughout the world, Rom. i. The Christians at Rome were forward to go and meet him ( Acts xxviii. ); but when it came to the pinch, and they would be in danger of suffering with him, then they all forsook him.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

"May it not be laid to THEIR charge," for they were intimidated; their drawing back from me was not from bad disposition so much as from fear; it is sure to be laid to the charge of those who intimidated them. Still Paul, like Stephen, would doubtless have offered the same prayer for his persecutors themselves (Ac 7:60).
