Wesley's Notes for Acts 23:29
23:27 Having learned that he was a Roman - True; but not before he rescued him. Here he uses art.
23:31 The soldiers brought him by night to Antipatris - But not the same night they set out. For Antipatris was about thirty - eight of our miles northwest of Jerusalem. Herod the Great rebuilt it, and gave it this name in honour of his father Antipater: Cesarea was near seventy miles from Jerusalem, and about thirty from Antipatris.
