Acts 1:20 - Forerunner Commentary

Acts 1:20

18 ^a(Now this man purchased a field with ^bthe wages of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst open in the middle and all his² entrails gushed out.

19 And it became known to all those dwelling in Jerusalem; so that field is called in their own language, Akel Dama, that is, Field of Blood.)

20 “For it is written in the Book of Psalms:
^a‘Let his dwelling place be¹ desolate,
And let no one live in it’; and,
^b‘Let another take his¹ office.’

21 “Therefore, of these men who have accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,

22 beginning from the baptism of John to that day when ^aHe was taken up from us, one of these must ^bbecome a witness with us of His resurrection.”

23 And they proposed two: Joseph called ^aBarsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.
