Hechos 1:9-20 RVR1960

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Acts 1:15

In those days - On one of the days intervening between the ascension of Jesus and the day of Pentecost.Peter stood up - Peter standing up, or rising. This is a customary expression in the Scriptures when one begins to do a thing, Luke 15:18. The reason why Peter did this may be seen in the notes on Matthew 16:16-17. It is not improbable, besides, that Peter was the most aged of the apostles; and from his uniform conduct we know that he was the most ardent. It was perfectly characteristic,... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Acts 1:16

Men and brethren - This is a customary mode of address, implying affection and respect, Acts 13:26. The Syriac renders it more appropriately than by the introduction of the conjunction “and” - “Men, our brethren.”This scripture - This prediction contained in the writings of the Old Testament. Compare the notes on John 5:39. The passage to which Peter refers is commonly supposed to be that recorded in Psalms 41:9, “Yea, mine own familiar friend ...hath lifted up his heel against me.” This is... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Acts 1:17

He was numbered with us - He was chosen as an apostle by the Lord Jesus, Luke 6:13-16. This does not mean that he was a true Christian, but that he was reckoned among the apostles. Long before he betrayed him, Jesus declared that he was a devil, John 6:70. He knew his whole character when he chose him, John 2:25. If it be asked why he chose such a man to be an apostle; why he was made the treasurer of the apostles, and was admitted to the fullest confidence; we may reply, that a most important... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Acts 1:18

Now this man ... - The money which was given for betraying the Lord Jesus was thrown down in the temple, and the field was purchased with it by the Jewish priests. See Matthew 27:5, Matthew 27:10, and the notes on that place. A man is said often to do a thing when he furnishes means for doing it. Compare Matthew 27:60, “And laid it (the body of Jesus) in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock.” That is, had caused to be hewn out. John 4:1, “when, therefore, the Lord knew how the... read more

It was known ... - , Matthew 27:8. The scene in the temple; the acts of the priests in purchasing the field, etc., would make it known; and the name of the field would preserve the memory of the guilt of Judas.Their proper tongue - The language spoken by the Jews the Syro-Chaldaic.Aceldama - This is composed of two Syro-Chaldaic words, and means literally, the field of blood. read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Acts 1:20

For it is written ... - See Psalms 69:25. This is the prediction doubtless to which Peter refers in Acts 1:16. The intermediate passage in Acts 1:18-19, is probably a parenthesis; the words of Luke, not of Peter. So Calvin, Kuinoel, Olshausen, DeWette, and Hackett understand it. It is not probable that Peter would introduce a narrative like this, with which they were all familiar, in an address to the disciples. The Hebrew in the Psalm is, “Let their habitation (Hebrew: fold, enclosure for... read more

Acts 1:9-11. And when he had spoken these things Had given them these instructions; while they beheld And had their eyes fixed upon him, with great earnestness and high expectation of some extraordinary event, consequent on this solemn preparation, and while they were receiving his blessing, (Luke 24:51,) he was taken up Was lifted up from the ground, in a miraculous manner, gradually rising higher and higher, till at length a cloud Conducted probably by the ministry of angels; ... read more

Acts 1:12. Then returned they unto Jerusalem According to their Master’s appointment, having first worshipped him, Luke 24:52. Here they were in the midst of enemies; but it seems, though immediately after Christ’s resurrection they were watched, and were in fear of the Jews, yet after it was known that they were gone into Galilee, no notice was taken of their return to the city, nor any further search made for them. In Jerusalem they employed themselves in a daily course of public and... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Acts 1:13-14

Acts 1:13-14. When they were come, they went up into an upper room Where they usually held their meetings. The upper rooms, so frequently mentioned in Scripture, were chambers in the highest part of the houses, set apart by the Jews for private prayer. These, on account of their being so retired and convenient, the apostles now used for all the offices of religion. Here all the eleven were assembled, who all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication And that with great... read more

Acts 1:15. In those days While they were waiting for the promise of the Spirit; Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples Probably being under a peculiar divine influence on this occasion. The number of the names, or persons, together That is, who were together in the upper room; were a hundred and twenty It seems the greater part of the five hundred to whom Christ had appeared (see 1Co 15:6 ) continued in Galilee during this interval between the feast of the passover and that of... read more
