Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

18:7-11 The Lord knows those that are his, yea, and those that shall be his; for it is by his work upon them that they become his. Let us not despair concerning any place, when even in wicked Corinth Christ had much people. He will gather in his chosen flock from the places where they are scattered Thus encouraged, the apostle continued at Corinth, and a numerous and flourishing church grew up.

Clarke's Commentary on the Bible

And he departed thence - From his former lodging, or that quarter of the city where he had dwelt before with Aquila and Priscilla; and went to lodge with Justus, apparently a proselyte of the gate. This person is called Titus, and Titus Justus, in several MSS. and versions.

Geneva Study Bible

And he departed thence, and entered into a certain man's house, named Justus, one that worshipped God, whose house joined hard to the synagogue.

People's New Testament

18:7 He departed thence. Left the synagogue and taught no more there, but secured a place of teaching in the house of Justus, near by.

Justus. The Revised Version reads Titus Justus. Some have supposed this man to be the Titus to whom the epistle was afterwards written.

Wesley's Notes

18:7 He went into the house of one named Justus - A Gentile, and preached there, though probably he still lodged with Aquila.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

7, 8. he departed thence, and entered into a certain man's house, named Justus-not changing his lodging, as if Aquila and Priscilla up to this time were with the opponents of the apostle [Alford], but merely ceasing any more to testify in the synagogue, and henceforth carrying on his labors in this house of Justus, which "joining hard to the synagogue," would be easily accessible to such of its worshippers as were still open to light. Justus, too, being probably a proselyte, would more easily draw a mixed audience than the synagogue. From this time forth conversions rapidly increased.
