Notes, Explanatory and Practical, on the Old and New Testaments (1832-1869)

When they heard this - When they heard what Paul had said respecting the nature of John’s baptism. They were baptized ... - As there is no other instance in the New Testament of any persons having been rebaptized, it has been made a question by some critics whether it was done here; and they have supposed that all this is the narrative of Luke respecting what took place under the ministry of John: to wit, that he told them to believe on Christ Jesus, and then baptized them in his name.

Explanatory Notes upon the New Testament (1755)

Paul only laid his hands upon them. They were baptized - They were baptized twice; but not with the same baptism. John did not administer that baptism which Christ afterward commanded, that is, in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
