12.are admired by some, and derided by others;
14.whom Peter disproves;

A sense of awe came over everyone
This phrase indicates the profound impact of the Holy Spirit's work among the early believers. The "sense of awe" reflects a deep reverence and fear of God, often associated with His manifest presence. In the Old Testament, similar reactions are seen when God reveals Himself, such as at Mount Sinai (Exodus 19:16). This awe is not merely emotional but a recognition of God's holiness and power. The early church's unity and devotion, as described earlier inActs 2, contributed to this atmosphere of reverence.

and the apostles performed many wonders and signs
The apostles' ability to perform "wonders and signs" is a testament to the authority and power given to them by Jesus Christ. These miracles served as divine validation of their message and ministry, similar to how Jesus' miracles confirmed His identity and mission (John 20:30-31). The term "wonders and signs" is often used in Scripture to describe acts that reveal God's power and provoke amazement, as seen in the miracles performed by Moses in Egypt (Exodus 7-11). These acts were not just displays of power but were meant to point people to the truth of the Gospel and the reality of the Kingdom of God. The apostles' miracles fulfilled Jesus' promise that they would do greater works (John 14:12) and were a continuation of His ministry on earth.

Miracles served to authenticate the apostles' message. While we may not always witness miracles, we can trust in the truth of the gospel and the authority of Scripture.

Awe and Reverence
The sense of awe experienced by the early believers is a reminder of the importance of maintaining a reverent attitude towards God and His works.

Community Witness
The early church's witness was strengthened by the visible power of God. Our lives should reflect God's work in us, serving as a testimony to others.

What Does Acts 2:43 Mean
A sense of awe

- “A sense of awe” (Acts 2:43) speaks of holy fear, the reverent wonder that settles in when God unmistakably moves.

- Similar reactions appear when Jesus raises the widow’s son—“They were all filled with awe” (Luke 7:16)—and when the early church confronts Ananias and Sapphira—“Great fear seized the whole church” (Acts 5:11).

- Such awe is not dread but worshipful recognition that the Lord is present and powerful (Psalm 33:8;Hebrews 12:28-29).

came over everyone

- This wasn’t limited to the Twelve or an inner circle; “everyone” includes the 3,000 just added (Acts 2:41) and likely many onlookers in Jerusalem.

- God’s works are meant to bless and convict whole communities (Exodus 19:16;Jonah 3:5).

- Widespread awe prepared hearts for continued teaching and fellowship (Acts 2:42) and for daily growth of the church (Acts 2:47).

and the apostles

- The Holy Spirit had just filled these men at Pentecost (Acts 2:4). Now He channels authority through them, fulfilling Jesus’ promise: “You will be My witnesses…to the ends of the earth” (Acts 1:8).

- Leadership matters. Christ authenticated His chosen messengers so the newborn church could anchor its faith in true doctrine (Ephesians 2:20).

performed many

- “Many” underscores frequency. Miracles were not isolated headlines but ongoing evidences of God’s kingdom breaking in (John 14:12;Acts 4:33).

- Repetition built credibility; the gospel advanced as people repeatedly saw God at work (Acts 9:32-35; 19:11-12).

wonders and signs

- “Wonders” stir amazement; “signs” point to a message. Together they reveal Jesus is alive and reigning (Mark 16:20;Hebrews 2:3-4).

- These acts mirrored Christ’s own ministry—healing the lame (Acts 3:6-8), raising the dead (Acts 9:40-42)—showing continuity between the Lord and His apostles (John 20:21).

- The pairing also refutes any idea that miracles are ends in themselves; they validate the gospel and call for repentance (Acts 3:19).

summary

Acts 2:43 records the atmosphere of Pentecost’s aftermath: a Spirit-given awe spreads through the whole community while God continually authenticates the apostles with miracles. The verse reminds us that where the risen Christ is proclaimed, reverence rises, hearts open, and the Lord confirms His word with visible power, drawing people to saving faith and establishing His church in truth.

(43)Fear came upon every soul.--The Greek text shows a careful distinction of tenses. Fear--i.e., reverential awe--came specially at that season; the "signs and wonders" were wrought continually. (See Note onActs 2:19.)

Verse 43. -Fear came, etc. This seems to be spoken of the awe which fell upon the whole people, and restrained them from interfering with the disciples. Just as at the first settlement of Israel in the land of Canaan God laid the fear of them and the dread of them upon all the hind (Deuteronomy 11:25), so now the fear engendered by the events on the day of Pentecost, by the signs and wonders which followed and by the wonderful unity and holiness of the newborn Church, so wrought upon every soul at Jerusalem that all enmity was paralyzed, and the disciples had time to multiply and to consolidate and establish themselves before the storm of persecution fell upon them.
