NASB | Acts 2:38 Peter said to them, "Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Acts 2:38 And Peter said to them, "Repent [change your old way of thinking, turn from your sinful ways, accept and follow Jesus as the Messiah] and be baptized, each of you, in the name of Jesus Christ because of the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. |
Subject: Repent and Baptism for same number? |
Bible Note: Searcher, Thank you. The Greek in verse 2:3 and verse 2:38 is the same and so everyone who was told to repent was also told to be baptized. My point was not to determine the exact number that was present that day; instead I made the point that the verbs 'repent' and 'be baptized', though one was 3rd singular and one is 2nd plural, are to the same crowd and both are required of all in order to receive forgiveness of sins. Have a good day. Disciplerami |
