Bible Question: What day was the Pentecost? Was it on Sunday? Also where were the believers gathered, is it inside the church or in someone's house? |
Bible Answer: Dear Sam, Penetcost took place in Jerusalem in a house, probably a big house, because Acts 1:12-15 says there were over 120 person gathered who were waiting. Then Acts 2:1-12 says they were still gathered in a house when the Holy Spirit fell. To add to that what happened was loud because they had to be heard outside as the text says that men hearing the sound came a crowd from outside came together where they were 120 or so were gathered inside. It is possible the whole shebang moved outside but the text doesn't say, but 120 plus is a whole lot to have in somebodies house in the first place and then that men from every nation under heaven showed up, well you get the idea...
