as not yet glorified.' (John 7:39.) Thus the promise was made, but the fulfilment came after, so that the Holy Ghost sent by Jesus from the Father did not come in person until the day of Pentecost, and the cloven tongues of fire were the sign of His coming." FOOTNOTES: [1400] Acts 1:15-26. [1401] Luke 24:52,53; Acts 1:12-14. [1402] 1 Cor. 15:20; Rev. 1:5; Colos. 1:18. [1403] Matt. 27:52, 53. [1404] Acts 1:16; compare Psalm 41:9; see also John 13:18. [1405] Acts 1:20. The revised version substitutes on a preponderance of authority "office" or, (marginal reading), "overseership," for the erroneous rendering "bishoprick" in the common version. Compare Psalm 109:8. [1406] Acts 6:1-6; Note 1, end of chapter. [1407] Acts 2:1-41. Note 7, end of chapter. [1408] Note 2, end of chapter. [1409] Luke 24:49; Acts 1:4, 5, 8. [1410] Acts 2:6, in a better rendering than that of the common text (see revised version) reads: "And when this sound was heard, the multitude came together." [1411] Joel 2:28, 29; compare Zech. 12:10. [1412] Note 3, end of chapter. [1413] Acts 2:44-46; 4:32-37; 6:1-4. [1414] Acts 3:6; read the entire chapter. [1415] Acts 4:1-22. [1416] Acts 4:8-12; compare Psalm 118:22; Isa. 28:16; Matt. 21:42. [1417] Acts 5:12-17. [1418] Matt. 27:25; compare 23:35; see pages 638 and 648 herein. [1419] Acts 22:3. [1420] Acts 5:33-40. [1421] Acts 6:7. [1422] Acts 6:8-15; and 7. [1423] Acts 7:1-53. [1424] Isa. 66:1, 2; see also Matt. 5:34, 35; 23:22. [1425] Acts 7:56. Note this exceptional application of the title, Son of Man, to Christ by anyone other than Himself. See page 142 herein. [1426] Acts 8:4; 11:19. [1427] Acts 6:9. [1428] Acts 22:3; compare 5:34; page 708 herein. [1429] In view of Saul's social status and recognized ability, many believe him to have been a member of the Sanhedrin; but for this assumption we find no definite warrant in scripture. [1430] Acts 7:58; 8:1-3. [1431] Acts 8:1. [1432] Acts 9:1, 2. Observe that "way" here used for the first time to connote the gospel or religion of Christ, occurs frequently in Acts (16:17; 18:25, 26; 19:9, 23; 22:4; 24:14, 22). [1433] Three versions of this manifestation and its immediate results appear in Acts (9:3-29; 22:6-16; and 26:12-18): the first is the historian's narrative, while the others are given as reports of Saul's own words. [1434] Note 4, end of chapter. [1435] Note 4, end
