Verse 53
And were continually in the temple ,.... At the time of worship, at the hours of prayer, or of public service; and perhaps always privately in an upper room in it, where they, with others, met frequently, and continued, with one accord, in prayer and supplication; See Gill on Acts 1:14 , a practice worthy of imitation, whether in the public or private way:
praising, and blessing God ; for his Son Jesus Christ, who had died for their sins, was risen again for their justification, and was now ascended into heaven, to be their advocate there; and for all spiritual bless his Gospel to every creature.
Amen ; so let him be praised, and blessed by all the saints, for all that is contained in this Gospel. In a manuscript copy of Beza's, it is added,
"the Gospel according to Saint Luke was published fifteen years after the ascension of Christ;'
See Gill on the title of this Gospel "Lu 1:1".
