The three Jewish divisions of the Oid Testament Scriptures, here mentioned as containing, each of them, things concerning Christ. 4a. "Then opened He." Sow by the A influence of Christ thrv see. not only tlie m pro])hccies which pointed out the Messiah, out also tlie .M. -siali who was pointed out by these nronhecies. "I'nderstaud the Scriptures." Jesus opened their minds inexplaining to thcin the true meaning of the prophe ts, and bv unfolding the true nature of His kingdom. 46. "Thus it is written." etc. Here arc the two irreat essential facts of the gospel. 1. The atonement of Christ. 2. His resurrection from tlie dead. 47. "Kenentnnce." This implies that a measure of divine wisdom is communicated to tlie sinnner. and that he thorehv becomes wise to salvation. That his mind, purposes, opinions and inclinations are changed, and that in consequence, there is a total change in his conduct. "Remission of sins." The forgiveness of sins, the removal of the punishment, and deliverance of the soul from the power of sin. "In Ilis name." As obtained for sinful men by His atoning sufferings, as the fruit of His intercession, and the effect of His grace. "Among all nations." Cod wills the salvation of all. and Jesus tasted death for every man. "Beginning at Jerusalem." Because it was thus written. Isa. 2:3 Because there the facts on which the gospel was founded were transacted: and because Christ de-ired to give further proof of Ilis love and example of forgiving His enemies. 4S. "Ye are witnesses." They had b<-en with Jesus throughout His ministry, they had heard His teaching, they had seen His miracles, thev knew His character, their had seen Him after He rose from the de.i 1. and now their work was to bear witness of these things. 49. "I send the promise." The Ho'v j Ohost was pro; ':<n! to 11.r- <ii !i through Chvi?t. "Endued." In\- jto.'. or clothed wi?h. "From on high." It is froiri on birb. and therefore draws- the > '.I upward, and makes ii aim high. TV? power was t lie promise of the Father; it could not l'.iii. 50. "As far as Bethany." Xot the villa ce itsplf. hut on tlic descent to it from ; Mount Civet. "Lifted ut? IIis h inds." Probably to lay them on their heads. f>.r tiiat was the ordina " way in which a blessing was "iven. Con. 4S:^-29. 51. "Into heaven." The disciples did not see Him ri<e out of the grace. because His resurrection could be easily proved bv j their seeing Him afterward: but thev saw Him return to heaven. a? there would be no other way1 to prove it. 52. "They worshiped Him." In gratitude for Hi? blessing upon them. The cloud that received Hint out of their sight did .not put them or their services out of His sight. "With great joy." Every sorrow bad bean turned into jnv. They were full of love and joy in the Holv Spirit. 53. "Continually in the temtde." While thev abode together at Jerusalem, waiting and praying with one accord for the Spirit of power, truth and holiness, they went to the temnle at the proper times to join in the worship there performed. 1. "The former treatise.'' The go>pel of Luke. Luke was the author of Acts. "O Tiieophilus." lie .vas probably a magis t rat" or high olfcrial who had been converted to Christianity. "To do and teach." A very important statement, dividing the work o? Christ into two great branches; tlx- one embracing His weik on earth, the other His ur nt work from h- aven.

"'Apostles." The twelve generally called disciples in the gospels ar<? in the Acts spoken of as rpostles. or "those smit forth." 3. "l'assion." Sufferings on the cross. "Infallible proofs." The single Greek word, translated "infallible proof." denotes the strongest nroofs of which a subject is canable. an irresistible proof. 4. "Not depart from Jerusalem." The coining of the Spirit was to be at the tv-xt great feast after the crucifixion. They waited by prayer, by conference together, bv doing necessary duties. Vs. 13. 14.

"Uttermost part." etc. They were to begin at home, with the dews, and gradually reach out until the glorious gospel reached the whole human race. 9. "A cloud." Perhaps it was like the "(ien% cloudy pillar." the symbol of God. <, that led the Israelites through the wilderness; or Elijah's storm chariot, or the bright cloud of glory which overshadowed Him on the Mount of Transfiguration. This was IPs "royal chariot," as Chrysos- I torn ca'ls it. *9. "Were looking." (R. V.) Wondering what it all meant. "Two men." Ange's in the form of men. "White apparel." Ma't. 2S:.*?.
