Acts 18:13

The Pulpit Commentary · Joseph S. Exell and contributors · Public Domain

Man for fellow, A.V. The A.V. was intended to express the contemptuous feeling often implied in οὖτος (. 2; ; , etc.). Contrary to the Law; meaning, as it naturally would in the mouth of a Jew, the Law of Moses.

Hence Gallio's answer in , "If it be a question … of your Law, look ye to it." The very phrase, to "worship God," had a technical sense (see above, ). Paul, they said, professed to make proselytes, and encouraged them to break the Law.
