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: Scripture ... Acts 1:13-17, 1:26-2:4, 8-11 ..... The nearest antecedent of "they" (2:1) is the 12 apostles (1:26). But, "they" could be the 120 (1:15). Which ever it is, the Holy Spirit (why do you use lowercase for His name?) FILLED them all (2:4). Also, they mat not have been in the upper room where they were staying (1:13). Since there were more than 12 native languages (2:8-11), I would think it was more than the 12 apostles. |
