Hebraic Insights in the Gospels

Acts 19:6 When Paul had laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they spoke with other languages and prophesied.

Act 17:22-32

Paul stood in the middle of the Areopagus, and said, “You men of Athens, I perceive that you are very religious in all things. (23) For as I passed along, and observed the objects of your worship, I found also an altar with this inscription: ‘TO AN UNKNOWN GOD!’ What therefore you worship in ignorance, this I announce to you. (24) The ELOHIM who made the world and all things in it, he, being Lord of heaven and earth, doesn’t dwell in temples made with hands, (25) neither is he served by men’s hands, as though he needed anything, seeing he himself gives to all life and breath, and all things. (26) He made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the surface of the earth, having determined appointed seasons, and the boundaries of their dwellings, (27) that they should seek ADONAI, if perhaps they might reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us. (28) ‘For in him we live, and move, and have our being.’ As some of your own poets have said, ‘For we are also his offspring.’ (29) Being then the offspring of ELOHIM, we ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold, or silver, or stone, engraved by art and design of man. (30) The times of ignorance therefore ELOHIM overlooked. But now he commands that all people everywhere should repent, (31) because he has appointed a day in which he will judge the world in righteousness by the man whom he has ordained; of which he has given assurance to all men, in that he has raised him from the dead.” (32) Now when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked; but others said, “We want to hear you again concerning this.”

Acts 16:9-10

A vision appeared to Paul in the night. There was a man of Macedonia standing, begging him, and saying, “Come over into Macedonia and help us.” When he had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go out to Macedonia, concluding that ADONAI had called us to proclaim the Good News to them.

Acts 15:13-18 After they were silent, Jacob answered, “Brothers, listen to me. 14 Simeon has reported how ELOHIM first visited the nations, to take out of them a people for his name. 15 This agrees with the words of the prophets. As it is written, 16 ‘After these things I will return. I will again build the tabernacle of David, which has fallen. I will again build its ruins. I will set it up, 17 That the rest of men may seek after ADONAI; All the Gentiles who are called by my name, Says ADONAI, who does all these things. 18 All his works are known to ELOHIM from eternity.’

Acts 13:47-49 For so has ADONAI commanded us, saying, ‘I have set you as a light for the Gentiles, that you should bring salvation to the uttermost parts of the earth.’” 48 As the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of ELOHIM! As many as were appointed to eternal life believed. 49 ADONAI’s word was spread abroad throughout all the region.

Acts 13:2-4 As they served ADONAI and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, “Separate Barnabas and Saul for me, for the work to which I have called them.” 3 Then, when they had fasted and prayed and laid their hands on them, they sent them away. 4 So, being sent out by the Holy Spirit, they went down to Seleucia. From there they sailed to Cyprus.

Acts 12:1-3 Now about that time, King Herod stretched out his hands to oppress some of the assembly. 2 He killed Jacob, the brother of John, with the sword. 3 When he saw that it pleased the Judeans, he proceeded to seize Peter also. This was during the days of unleavened bread.

Acts 11:26 When he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. It happened, that for a whole year they were gathered together with the assembly, and taught many people. The disciples were first called Messianic in Antioch.

Acts 10:1 Now there was a certain man in Caesarea, Cornelius by name, a centurion of what was called the Italian Regiment,

Acts 9:31 So the assemblies throughout all Judea and Galilee and Samaria had peace, and were built up. They were multiplied, walking in the fear of ADONAI and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit.
