使徒行传 3:5 CUVS

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Acts 3:1-11

We were told in general (Acts 2:43) that many signs and wonders were done by the apostles, which are not written in this book; but here we have one given us for an instance. As they wrought miracles, not upon every body as every body had occasion for them, but as the Holy Spirit gave direction, so as to answer the end of their commission; so all the miracles they did work are not written in this book, but such only are recorded as the Holy Ghost thought fit, to answer the end of this sacred... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - Acts 3:1-10

3:1-10 Peter and John used to go up to the Temple at the hour of prayer at three o'clock in the afternoon, and a man who had been lame from the day of his birth was in the habit of being carried there. Every day they used to put him at the gate of the Temple which is called the Beautiful Gate, so that he could beg for alms from the people who were going into the Temple. When he saw Peter and John about to go into the Temple he asked to be given alms. Peter fixed his eyes on him with John and... read more

John Gill

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Acts 3:5

And he gave heed unto them ,.... Or "he looked at them", as the Syriac version renders it, as they bid him: he was not only attentive to them in his mind, but he directed his eyes towards them, and looked wistly at them. This clause is left out in the Ethiopic version. Expecting to receive something of them ; not a cure for his lameness, which he little thought of, but some money, as an alms. read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 3:5

Expecting to receive something of them - Because it was a constant custom for all who entered the temple to carry money with them to give to the treasury, or to the poor, or to both. It was on this ground that the friends of the lame man laid him at the gate of the temple, as this was the most likely place to receive alms. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Acts 3:1-10

Helplessness and healing. In this interesting incident we have an illustration of the urgent spiritual necessities of our race, and of the sufficiency of the gospel to meet them. We have— I. A GREAT AND SAD CONTRAST . They brought daily to the Beautiful gate of the temple a lame beggar, who asked alms of all that entered ( Acts 3:2 , Acts 3:3 ). What a striking contrast is here!—the large, strong, handsome gate, wrought by the most skilful workmen, intended to add beauty... read more

The healing of the lame man. I. THE ANTECEDENTS OF THE CURE . Peter and John were going up in company to the temple at the evening hour of prayer. Here we see: 1. The fellowship of different orders of minds in Christ. None more diverse in character and temperament than the impulsive Peter and the contemplative John. 2. Prayer one of the bonds of this fellowship, as expressed in the beautiful hymn, " How blest the tie that binds!" 3. An example of the profit of set... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Acts 3:1-10

The apostles workers of miracles. General introduction. The witnessing vocation of apostles required miracles—as signs of the kingdom of Christ; as attestations of apostolic authority; as appeals to the world, and to the Jewish people especially, to accept the new doctrine; as corresponding in some measure to the miracles of our Lord, and so perpetuating the blessing of his ministry which he himself promised in his last discourses, "Another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever" (... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Acts 3:1-11

The unexpected gift. In one of those rapturous passages in which St. Paul tries to make human language express adequate thoughts of God, he speaks of God as "able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think" ( Ephesians 3:20 ). In saying so he does but mark, in one aspect, the distance between the finite and the infinite, and show how far the bounty of the infinite Giver outruns the desires of those who receive his gifts. The whole revelation of God's dealings with mankind... read more

Acts 3:3-8. Who, seeing Peter and John, asked an alms As it seems he did of all who entered in at the gate where he sat begging: an alms was the utmost he expected from them or any others. And Peter, fastening his eyes on him, with John That is, looking steadfastly at him, feeling, doubtless, a strong emotion of soul, which intimated to him that the divine power would be exerted in working an illustrious miracle for the further confirmation of the gospel; said, Look on us This the lame... read more
