What the Fathers say

Acts 16:31

Eastern Fathers

John Chrysostom

And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. What then answers Paul? Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, thou and thine house. For this above all, wins men: that one's house also should be saved.

Theophylact of Ohrid

"Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your whole household." Even in prison Paul did not give himself rest, and there he drew the jailer to himself and accomplished this beautiful captivity.
