Verse Concepts
And daily of one accord in the temple they were persevering; and breaking bread from house to house, they received their food with gladness and purity of heart, praising God, and having favor unto all the people. And the Lord was daily adding to them those who were being saved.
And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all of one accord in the same place. And suddenly there was a sound from heaven as of a mighty, rushing wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. And there appeared unto them divided tongues, as of fire, and it sat upon each one of them; read more.
and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. And Jews were dwelling at Jerusalem, devout men from every nation, of those under the heaven; and this report prevailing, the multitude came together and was confounded, because they were hearing them speaking each one in his own dialect. And they were all astounded and marveled, saying, Are not all these who are speaking, Galileans? And how do we hear each one in our own dialect in which we were born, Parthians and Medes and Elamites, and those inhabiting Mesopotamia, Judea, and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, indeed Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the regions of Libya which is beyond Cyrene, and Roman sojourners, both Jews and proselytes, Cretans and Arabians, we hear them speaking the mighty works of God in our own languages. And all were astounded and bewildered, saying one to another, What does this wish to be? And others mocking, continued to say, that these people are full of fermented wine. And Peter standing with the eleven, lifted up his voice and spoke to them: Judean men and all ye dwelling at Jerusalem, let this be known unto you, and know my words. For these are not drunken, as you suppose; for it is the third hour of the day; but this is that which has been spoken by the prophet Joel; And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, I will pour out from my Spirit upon all flesh, and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams; and upon my servants and my handmaidens I will pour out of my Spirit on those days, and they shall prophesy. And I will give wonders in the heavens above, and signs on the earth beneath, blood and fire, and vapor of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great day of the Lord shall come. And it shall come to pass, that every one who may call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Israelitish men, hear these words, Jesus the Nazarene, a man having been demonstrated unto you from God by miracles, wonders and signs, which God did through Him in your midst, as yourselves know; Him by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, having been delivered, you having nailed up, slew through the hand of lawless men; whom God raised up, loosing the pangs of death, because it was impossible that he should be held by it. For David says in reference to him, I foresaw my Lord always before me, because he is on my right hand, in order that I may not be moved. Therefore my heart rejoiced and my tongue was glad, and my flesh shall indeed still rest in hope, because thou wilt not leave my soul in Hades, nor suffer thy Holy One to see corruption. Thou hast made known to me the ways of life; thou shalt fill me with gladness with thy countenance. Men, brethren, it is lawful to speak to you with boldness concerning the patriarch David, because he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day. Therefore being a prophet and knowing that God swore with an oath, that from the fruit of his loins One should sit upon the throne; foreseeing he spoke concerning the resurrection of Christ, that He was not left in Hades, neither did His flesh see corruption. This Jesus God raised up, whose witnesses we are. Therefore on the right hand of God exalted, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, has poured out this which you both see and hear. For David hath not ascended into the heavens, but he says, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, until I may make thy enemies the footstool of thy feet. Then let all the house of Israel assuredly know that God hath made this same Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ. And hearing, they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the other apostles, Men, brethren, what must we do? And Peter said to them, Repent, and each one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ unto the remission of your sins, and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all who are afar off, so many as the Lord our God may call. And with many other words did he testify and exhort them, saying, Be saved from this wicked generation. Then indeed having received his word they were baptized, and on that day about three thousand souls were added unto them; and they were persevering in the teaching of the apostles and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers.

And of them there were certain Cyprian and Cyrenean men, who, having come into Antioch, were speaking to the Greeks also, preaching the gospel of the Lord Jesus. And the hand of the Lord was with them: and a great number having believed, turned to the Lord.
