Acts 5 מעשי השליחים


מעשי השליחים



 

1.   How does the incident with Ananias and Saphira have to do with Barnabba?


 

2.   Give Biblical examples of things that could be dedicated as “voluntary offerings” to help the poor in the Torah, how does it relate to Acts 4?


 



3.   Give previous Biblical examples of the same fate of Ananias and Sapphira suffered; what are the parallels?


 

 

4.   Where was the regular meeting place of the emissaries, and why is this significant?




5.   What was the contemporary belief in healing at the time, and what did this have to do with Peter’s shadow?




 

6.   Who exactly is responsible for arresting and imprisoning the emissaries this time, why is this significant?




 

7.   Who exactly set them free, and where did he tell them to go and why is this significant?




 

8.   What were the likely repercussions of the emissaries escape on the Captain, and what does this all say to us about the success of Messianic Jewish preaching and ministry despite opposition?


 



9.   Why did the Captain and guards not take the emissaries a 2nd time by force,  what did they fear and why?


 



10.                  What does the expression “this Man’s blood” mean, how did the Sanhedrin interpret it, and what did Peter mean it to be?


 

11.                  What were “all” the causes of the Sanhedrin’s reaction of rage to the emissaries and their intention to kill them?


 

12.                  Who was Rabban Gamaliel, why do you think it was he to warn the Sanhedrin to take a different course regarding the emissaries?




 

13.                  Who was Theudas and Judah, what did they do and what was perhaps one of the chronological problems with their mention in Acts 5?
