Notes

Acts 1:21–22

To qualify to be an apostle, a man needed to have been with the other apostles throughout the public ministry of Jesus. This period started from the time John baptized Jesus and continued until Jesus was taken up into heaven.

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).
