Tuesday Night Bible Study

September 24, 2013

Study of the Book of Acts

 

Brief Review

 

Acts 1:12-22

 

Mount Olivet – location of the ascension

What is a “Sabbath day’s journey”?

 

Scene from the Upper Room

Who was there?

“continued with one accord”

In those days? (sometime between ascension and Pentecost?)

 

Peter’s Speech

Parenthetical in vs 18-19

Details of Judas’ death

 

This scripture must needs have been fulfilled!  (what scripture?)

Psalm 69:25 – Judas’ death

 

Psalm 109:8 – Judas’ replacement

 

Two Items to consider

  • “went in and out”.

 

Deuteronomy 31:2, Joshua 14:11, 1 Kings 3:7, 2 Chronicles 1:10,  2 Chronicles 16:1, Jeremiah 17:19, John 10:9

  • “ordained”

 

A word study on vs 21-22.  (see study sheet)

 

Comparison of tenses

 

Does Peter think he is about to fulfill prophecy?

Direct from Greek text translation:

“It is necessary therefore of the accompanying us of men in all time in which in-came and out-came on us the Lord Jesus, commencing from the washing of John up to the day which up-taken from of us witness of the up-standing of him to cause to be with to us one of these.”

 

My translation:

“Therefore, it is necessary, of the men who accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out with us, staring at the time of the washing performed by John up to the day that He [Jesus] ascended from us, to cause one of these to be a witness of his resurrection with us.”

 

King James

“Wherefore of these men which have companied with us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us, beginning from the baptism of John, unto that same day that he was taken up from us, must one be ordained to be a witness with us of his resurrection.”

 

ESV

“So one of the men who have accompanied us during all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us, beginning from the baptism of John until the day when he was taken up from us–one of these men must become with us a witness to his resurrection.”

 

NASB

“Therefore it is necessary that of the men who have accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us–beginning with the baptism of John until the day that He was taken up from us–one of these must become a witness with us of His resurrection.”

 

Young’s Literal Translation

“It behoveth, therefore, of the men who did go with us during all the time in which the Lord Jesus went in and went out among us, beginning from the baptism of John, unto the day in which he was received up from us, one of these to become with us a witness of his rising again.”
