The Apostle having formerly discovered his humane fears and diffidence under that great trouble which came upon him in Asia, doth now recollect himself, and revive out of his swoonings. The Sun that was in an Eclipse, doth now begin to shine forth in glorious lustre. He had informed us, that the end of that heavy tribulation was, That he should not trust in himself, but in God. And now in this verse, we see this blessed effect took place in him. For by the experience of Gods mercy to him at this time, he is encouraged to trust in God for the future; he hath, doth, and will deliver. One favour from God is a pledge of more to come.

In this verse then we see Paul got above, and conquering that weakness and imbecility which he found in himself, and acknowledging the goodness of God, and his power to him, Paul found God able to raise the dead, by what he had done to him in his particular.
