| Acts 22:23 | And as they cried out, and threw off their garments, and cast dust into the air, | Threw off their garments. Or pulling them open to shew themselves ready to stone him. (Witham) --- This is nicely descriptive of the fury of a populace, who, when unable to vent their rage in some more effectual way, indignantly throw into the air, and against the object of their indignation, such harmless trifles as dust, clothes, etc. (Menochius) |
