Acts 2:5-13. And there were dwelling Or sojourning; in Jerusalem, Jews Now gathered from all parts, by the peculiar providence of God; devout Greek, ευλαβεις , pious men, from every nation under heaven Should this be taken for an hyperbole, we have other instances in Scripture of the like way of speaking; as where we read of cities walled up to heaven, Deuteronomy 1:28; and of the dread of the Jews falling upon every nation under the whole heaven, Deuteronomy 2:25. But, not to insist... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Acts 2:14-15

Acts 2:14-15. But Peter, standing up with the eleven Who were then in company with him, and who, doubtless, also all, or at least most of them, addressed the people on this occasion, some in one language, and others in another, speaking by turns, or even altogether, in different parts of the assembly, to those who understood the languages in which they spoke, and therefore flocked about them. Peter, however, it appears, spoke first, and addressing himself to the native Jews, undoubtedly... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Acts 2:16-21

Acts 2:16-21. But this is that which was spoken by the Prophet Joel But there is another and better way of accounting for what you see and hear. It is the accomplishment of a remarkable prophecy, in its primary and literal sense intended of these times, and this event. Of this whole paragraph see the notes on Joel 2:28-32, where it is explained at large. It shall come to pass in the last days So the times of the Messiah are frequently called, the gospel being the last dispensation of... read more

Acts 2:22. Ye men of Israel, hear these words Let me charge it upon you, as a most important duty, to pay attention to these remarkable words of the prophet, which I have now repeated in your hearing; and a part of which is this day evidently fulfilled, and the rest shall be fulfilled in their season.

Acts 2:23-24. Him, being delivered Unto death, by God his heavenly Father, who not only permitted him to be put to death, but delivered him up for us all. Romans 8:32; devoted and gave him up; and yet he was approved of God: and there was nothing in this that implied, in any degree, the disapproving of him.

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Acts 2:1-13

The church is born (2:1-13)Pentecost was a Jewish harvest festival held on the Sunday fifty days after Passover, when Israelites presented the first portion of their harvest to God (Leviticus 23:15-21). It was therefore a fitting day to mark the birth of the Christian church. Christ, the true Passover had been sacrificed (1 Corinthians 5:7), and now fifty days later God poured out his Spirit on that small group of disciples who were to become the first members of the church of Jesus Christ.In... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Acts 2:14-42

Peter’s preaching (2:14-42)Seeing the people’s interest, Peter addressed them, this time speaking in his normal language. His address shows some features of the early apostolic preaching. First he quoted from the Old Testament, to show that the Pentecost events fulfilled what the prophets foretold. To Peter the important point of the prophecy was that God poured out his Spirit on everyone - not everyone whether believers or not, but everyone within the community of God’s people, whether male or... read more
