Bible Question: I'd like to throw in a question. At pentecost how many were in the upper room, 12 apostles or the 120??........also did the holy spirit fall on just the twelve apostles or on the 120.??? |
Bible Answer: arrow1 Chapter one suggests there was 120 but that was right after Jesus' ascension, or forty days after His death and resurrection. However Pentecost was about 50 days after. In verse 14 of chapter 2 it says Peter stood up with the 11 and began to preach. Here the suggestion is only the 12 were present. I don't think we can draw definite conclusion with the evidence the Bible supplies. Whether it be 12 or 120 the fact remains the Holy Spirit has come to dwell with man. Praise be to God EdB |
