Notes

Acts 1:14

The first disciples came together for worship, fellowship, and prayer (see also 2:42, 46–47; 4:24–31; 5:12; 12:5; 13:1–3). The faithful women who witnessed Jesus's crucifixion and resurrection were there (Luke 23:49, 54–56; 24:1–10, 22).
The brothers of Jesus did not believe in him during his earthly ministry (John 7:3–5; compare Matthew 12:46–49). But they became his disciples after his resurrection.

Acts 1:13–26

The apostles waited for the promised gift of the Holy Spirit (1:4–5). All 120 disciples in Jerusalem were persisting in prayer (1:13–14). Then they chose a new apostle to replace Judas Iscariot (1:15–26).
