Phrygia and Pamphylia These regions were part of Asia Minor, modern-day Turkey. Phrygia was known for its diverse population and religious syncretism, which included the worship of Cybele, the mother goddess. Pamphylia, located on the southern coast, was a melting pot of cultures due to its position as a trade hub. The mention of these regions highlights the widespread nature of the Jewish diaspora and the diverse backgrounds of those present at Pentecost. The inclusion of these areas underscores the universal reach of the Gospel, as the Holy Spirit's outpouring was not limited to a single ethnic or cultural group. Egypt the parts of Libya near Cyrene visitors from Rome Jews and proselytes.--The words may possibly be applicable to the whole preceding list; but they read more like a note specially emphasising the prominence of the Roman proselytes in that mixed multitude of worshippers. It lies in the nature of the case, that they were proselytes in the full sense of the term, circumcised and keeping the Law. Looking to St. Luke's use of another word ("they that worship God," as in Acts 16:14; Acts 17:4; Acts 17:17) for those whom the Rabbis classed as "proselytes of the gate," it is probable that he used the term in its strictest sense for those who had been received into the covenant of Israel, and who were known in the Rabbinic classification as the "proselytes of righteousness."

And sojourners from Rome, both Jews and proselytes. The copula and couples the οἱ ἐπιδημοῦντες Ῥωμαῖοι with the οἱ κατοικοῦντες τὴν Μεσοποταμίαν, etc., of ver. 9. It is literally, those of us who are Roman sojourners at Jerusalem, whether Jews by race or proselytes. They were equally Roman sojourners, whether they were Jews whose home was at Rome or whether they were proselytes; and it is an interesting fact that there were such proselytes in the great capital of the heathen world. Sojourners, as in Acts 17:21, the strangers sojourning at Athens. Many good commentators - Alford, Meyer, Lechler (in Lange, 'Bibel Works'), etc. - take the words "Jews and proselytes" as applying to the whole preceding list, not to the Roman sojourners only; but in that case one would not expect Cretans and Arabians to follow.Parallel Commentaries ...
