Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Acts 5:1-11

The chapter begins with a melancholy but, which puts a stop to the pleasant and agreeable prospect of things which we had in the foregoing chapters; as every man, so every church, in its best state has its but. 1. The disciples were very holy, and heavenly, and seemed to be all exceedingly good; but there were hypocrites among them, whose hearts were not right in the sight of God, who, when they were baptized, and took upon them the form of godliness, denied the power of godliness, and stopped... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - Acts 5:1-11

5:1-11 A man called Ananias, together with his wife Sapphire, sold a bit of ground he had, and surreptitiously kept back part of the price, and his wife knew about it. He brought some part of the price and laid it at the feet of the apostles. Peter said to him, "Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart so that you have deceived the Holy Spirit and kept back part of the price of your ground? While it remained yours did it not remain your own, and after it had been sold was it not entirely at... read more

Then fell she down straightway at his feet ,.... In like manner, and by the same hand of God as her husband before: and yielded up the ghost ; died directly: and the young men came in and found her dead ; the young men who had been to inter her husband came into the house at that instant, and found her dead upon the floor, at the feet of the Apostle Peter: and carrying her forth, buried her by her husband ; as it was usual with the Jews to do. So they say F9 Cippi Hebraici,... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 5:10

Yielded up the ghost - See Acts 5:5 . It was not by Peter's words, nor through Peter's prayers, nor through shame, nor through remorse, that this guilty pair died, but by an immediate judgment of God. The question of the salvation of Ananias and Sapphira has not been a little agitated; and most seem inclined to hope that, though their sin was punished by this awful display of the Divine judgment, mercy was extended to their souls. For my own part, I think their sin was what the apostle, 1... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Acts 5:1-10

A fatal forgetfulness. There are several truths which this sad incident suggests to us. We may view them thus— I. THAT A NEW ENTERPRISE MAY SURVIVE A VERY DAMAGING BLOW . It was a very serious misfortune to the new Church that two of its members should commit a sin worthy of death, and pay that terrible penalty in the view of all. The apostles must have felt that they and the cause with which they were identified had received a severe blow; but it was far from being a... read more

The first hypocrisy. Hitherto all had been bright and beautiful in the new-born Church of God. Brotherly love, disinterested kindness to one another, heroic courage in the face of danger, unhesitating devotion to the service of the Lord Jesus Christ, and an unflinching profession of faith in his Name, had been the common characteristics of the multitude of them that believed. The Church was as the garden of the Lord in the midst of the world's wilderness. It was a bright spring-tide, soon,... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Acts 5:1-11

The sin of heart: untruth and its punishment. As the shadow follows the light, so Christianity has been marked in its progress by a deep and broadening shadow of hypocrisy. After the glorious picture of sunny days of the Spirit's life in the preceding chapter, a dark view of human deceit is presented. The root of bitterness springs up amidst the Divine delights of the time, and many are troubled. I. THE SIN OF ANANIAS AND SAPPHIRA . Essentially it was the acting of a lie. ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Acts 5:7-10

Helpers in sin must be sharers in judgment. The share taken by Sapphira was manifestly a prominent and an active one. She and her husband were at full accord in the matter; and her sin is the more aggravated as she had a longer time to think it over, and had evidently planned what she would say and do if any remarks were made by the apostles or the brethren as to the gift of the land. "The question asked by St. Peter gave her an opening for repentance. It had been in her power to save... read more

(or Acts 5:11 ) Conspiracy against God. While much in the previous paragraph repeated here, a new phase of sin presented. It was distinctly on the ground of deliberate agreement to tempt the Spirit of the Lord that Sapphira's death was added to that of her husband. I. The intimate connection of the proclamation of gospel truth and mercy with THE RENOVATION OF HUMAN SOCIETY . 1. Family life, domestic intimacy, the root of public life. We must choose all our relations... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Acts 5:10

And she fell down immediately for then fell she down straightway, A.V.; gave up for yielded up, A.V.; they carried her out and buried her for carrying her forth buried her. She fell down immediately. The Spirit who killeth and maketh alive thus vindicated his discernment and his power, and testified to the truth of his prophet St. Peter, by whose mouth he had just foretold the death of Sapphira. Gave up the ghost ( Acts 5:5 , note). Buried her by her husband . What a strange... read more
