1:2 up; (a-21) The word means 'receiving,' but with the prefix ( *ana* ) 'up,' as here, it has the active sense of 'taking up.' It is so translated except in [1 Timothy 3:16](../../../kjv/1-timothy/3/16) . The more passive reception is seen in [Acts 3:21](../../../kjv/acts/3/21) , where another word is used.

2:1 accomplishing, (f-9) It was come and running its course of fulfilment as a feast.

2:2 blowing, (g-15) It is not 'wind,' but they heard blowing, as of hard breathing, for which the Greek is used. 'Blast' is too sudden and passing.

2:6 spread, (h-7) Or 'this voice having taken place ' but I believe what is in the text to be the sense. It was what happened at the place which brought the crowd there. it was not the mighty rushing wind being heard everywhere. The end of the verse goes to confirm this. What struck those who came was hearing their own tongues. [Genesis 45:16](../../../kjv/genesis/45/16) and [Jeremiah 50:46](../../../kjv/jeremiah/50/46) are examples. The rumours of Jacob's coming spread to Pharaoh's house.

2:16 Joel, (a-11) See [Joel 2:28](../../../kjv/joel/2/28) .

2:20 appearing (b-18) Though used for 'illustrious,' 'glorious,' the Greek word has in it the sense of 'manifestation, appearing, displaying itself.' see [Titus 2:11](../../../kjv/titus/2/11) ,[Titus 2:13](../../../kjv/titus/2/13) . Lord (c-22) 'Jehovah;' so ver 39.

2:21 Lord (c-14) 'Jehovah;' so ver 39.

2:22 Israel, (d-3) Lit. 'Men, Israelites,' as elsewhere, cf. ch. 1.16. to (e-14) 'Borne witness to, to you,' is not agreeable English; but 'approved,' in the modern use at any rate, is not the sense, and 'among you is feeble. The manifestation or demonstration was to the Jews. The witness was borne to them objectively, to Jesus as its subject.

2:25 him, (f-6) See [Psalms 16:8](../../../kjv/psalms/16/8) .

2:26 more, (g-11) Lit. 'and more also.'

2:27 hades, (h-9) 'in' ( *eis* ) hades. see Note, [Matthew 11:23](../../../kjv/matthew/11/23) . gracious (i-15) Or 'holy,' *hosios* . It corresponds to the Hebrew *chasid* = merciful, gracious. see Note f, ch. 13.34,35; [2 Chronicles 6:42](../../../kjv/2-chronicles/6/42) ; and [Hebrews 7:26](../../../kjv/hebrews/7/26) .

2:29 Brethren (k-1) As ch. 1.16.

2:31 hades (h-19) 'in' ( *eis* ) hades. see Note, [Matthew 11:23](../../../kjv/matthew/11/23) . Christ, (l-11) Or, 'of Christ. '

2:34 himself, (a-12) See [Psalms 110:1](../../../kjv/psalms/110/1) .

2:41 accepted (b-5) It means, 'to receive in full,' or 'with satisfaction;' or, as to an opinion or teaching, 'to accept and receive it as true.' see Note, [Luke 8:40](../../../kjv/luke/8/40) .

2:42 teaching (c-6) As ch. 13.12; [1 Corinthians 14:26](../../../kjv/1-corinthians/14/26) .

2:46 temple (d-8) *Hieron* , the general buildings.

2:47 assembly] (e-16) See Note g, ch. 3.1. saved. (f-23) The remnant of Israel whom God was sparing. The Lord now added these to the Christian assembly. The present participle as here gives the character instead of the fact; as I might say, 'the being spared ones;' it is the class of persons God was then saving. It is not a doubt as to their being saved, nor a state, but a class. see [Luke 13:23](../../../kjv/luke/13/23) .
