Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 3:11

‘And as he held Peter and John, all the people ran together to them in the porch that is called Solomon’s, greatly wondering.’ The contrast here is significant. The man held on to Peter and John, full of faith and confidence. He would not let them go. The crowd ran together greatly wondering. But what would they do? The porch might be called ‘Solomon’s’. But would they reveal the wisdom of Solomon in their response? Would they too ‘hold on’ to the Apostles? or would they remain ‘lame’. read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 3:11

Acts 3:11 . There is an interesting variant in D: “ But when Peter and John were going out, he went with them holding them, and they stood astonished in the porch which is called Solomon’ s.” The scribe who wrote this knew that Solomon’ s Porch was outside the Temple, the writer of the text translated in RV was unaware of the fact; he makes the apostles enter the Temple with the lame man and here places them in Solomon’ s Porch without saying that they had left the Temple. We shall meet with... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Acts 3:11

Held Peter and John, in an ecstasy of thankfulness unto them, they having been the instruments of so great a mercy from God towards him; as also out of fear, lest when they were gone he might relapse: he that found so great a change in himself could not but be as much surprised as they that saw the change upon him. The porch that is called Solomon’s; not that which was built by Solomon, for that was destroyed by the Babylonians, as the rest of the temple was, 2 Kings 25:9; unless some part of... read more

CRITICAL REMARKSActs 3:11. For the lame man which was healed the best codices read he. The porch (or portico) that is called Solomon’s ran along the eastern wall of the temple on both sides of the gate of Susa, and overlooked the Valley of Jehoshaphat. It had three rows of columns fifty feet high, and two walks thirty feet wide. The columns were each of one stone (white marble), the walks were paved with stones of various colours, and the roofs adorned with sculptures in wood. The porch, which... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Acts 3:1-11

Acts 3:1-11 Look (1) at the social side, and (2) at the Apostolic side of this incident. I. The social side. (1) We may be able to carry the cripple while we are unable to heal him. Do what you can. (2) The commonest minds, as well as the highest, have always associated the idea of charity with the idea of religion. (3) Look at the compensations of the poorest life. The man was carried daily by friendly hands. The man had the temple as his daily hope. II. The Apostolic side. ( a ) The Apostles... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Acts 3:1-26

Acts 3:0 The Lame Man Healed We are reminded by this incident: I. That there are some things more valuable than money. Peter with his gift of healing was of infinitely greater service to this lame man than if he had possessed the riches of Croesus. The moment wealth becomes an end to be sought simply for its own sake, it ceases to be a blessing. II. That fidelity is the true kindness in the end. Mark how pointedly Peter here addresses the multitude. He charges home upon them, in unmistakable... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Acts 3:1-26

Shall we turn to Acts, the third chapter.Now Peter and John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, being the ninth hour ( Acts 3:1 ).The day started at six o'clock in the morning, sun up, so the ninth hour would be three o'clock in the afternoon. At two-thirty in the afternoon the evening sacrifices were offered. They did not go to the temple for the sacrifices. Following the sacrifices as the smoke of the sacrifice was ascending into heaven, it would be the hour of prayer and... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Acts 3:1-26

Acts 3:1 . Peter and John went into the temple at the hour of prayer. Some read, At the same time Peter and John went into the temple, intimating that this was the afternoon of the day of pentecost. Others conjecture that this miracle was wrought two or three days after the conversion of the three thousand, which is obviously supported by Acts 2:41. The same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls. Hence the five thousand, mentioned in Acts 4:4, may include the three... read more

Acts 3:1-11Now Peter and John.Peter and JohnThe union of the two brings the narratives of the Gospels into an interesting connection with the Acts. They were probably about the same age (the idea that Peter was some years older than John rests mainly on the pictures which artists have drawn from their imagination, and has no evidence in Scripture), and had been friends from their youth upward. They had been partners as fishermen on the Sea of Galilee (Luke 5:10). They had been sharers in... read more

Acts 3:11-26All the people ran together unto them in the porch that is called Solomon’s, greatly wondering.Solomon’s porchThe porch--or better, portico or cloister--was outside the temple, on the eastern side. It consisted in the Herodian Temple, of a double row of Corinthian columns, about thirty-seven feet high, and received its name as having been in part constructed, when the temple was rebuilt by Zerubbabel, with the fragments of the older edifice. The people tried to persuade Herod... read more
