Acts 3:11 - Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible

Bible Comments

Acts 3:11. There is an interesting variant in D: But when Peter and John were going out, he went with them holding them, and they stood astonished in the porch which is called Solomon's. The scribe who wrote this knew that Solomon's Porch was outside the Temple, the writer of the text translated in RV was unaware of the fact; he makes the apostles enter the Temple with the lame man and here places them in Solomon's Porch without saying that they had left the Temple. We shall meet with other instances of the local knowledge of the scribe of D.

Acts 3:11

11 And as the lame man which was healed held Peter and John, all the people ran together unto them in the porch that is called Solomon's, greatly wondering.
