Summary | "Weymouth New Testament in Modern Speech, Acts" by Richard Francis Weymouth is a modern paraphrase of the New Testament book of Acts, likely written in the early 20th century. This work aims to present the narrative of the early Christian Church, emphasizing the actions and teachings of the Apostles after the resurrection of Jesus Christ, particularly focusing on their spread of the Gospel and miraculous deeds. The opening of Acts details the aftermath of Jesus' ascension into heaven, where He instructs the Apostles to remain in Jerusalem until they receive the Holy Spirit. The narrative begins with the Apostles, including Peter and John, meeting in an upper room, united in prayer. They then address the issue of Judas Iscariot's betrayal and appoint Matthias as his replacement among the Twelve Apostles. The scene shifts to the day of Pentecost, where the Holy Spirit descends upon the Apostles, enabling them to speak in various languages, leading to the conversion of about three thousand people through Peter's powerful sermon. The beginning sets the stage for the expansion of the Christian movement, highlighting themes of community, faith, and divine intervention. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
