Acts 1:7

It is not for you to know the times, etc.—implying not only that this was not the time, but that the question was irrelevant to their present business and future work.



Acts 1:6-8

wilt thou at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?—Doubtless their carnal views of Messiah's kingdom had by this time been modified, though how far it is impossible to say. But, as they plainly looked for some restoration of the kingdom to Israel, so they are neither rebuked nor contradicted on this point.
