What the Fathers say
Eastern Fathers
Theophylact of Ohrid
"Having learned of this, they departed." There is nothing strange in the fact that the saints flee from people intending to plot against them, and consider it better to avoid a battle which they regarded, according to the testimony cited, as not permitted to them.
Oecumenius
"and fled." It should be noted here that we ought not to throw ourselves into danger, but if necessary, to flee for the time being, since the leaders of the church have done this, as if deliberately wishing to extend the proclamation, and to increase it rather through persecutions. [CYRIL ON THE 12 MINOR PROPHETS]
Western Saints
Bede
But Paul and Barnabas stayed in Lystra. And these little verses are not found in some of our manuscripts.
