Acts 6:3 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Look ye out among you seven men; as carefully and circumspectly as ye would in any cases of your own concerns. Of honest report; a good direction, that obliges to this day, in all elections of any for the service of God and his church. Full of the Holy Ghost; of the gifts and graces of the Holy Ghost, which were not bestowed on the apostles only. And wisdom; or prudence, and skill in the word of God, which only is able to make a man wise unto salvation, 2 Timothy 3:15.

Acts 6:3

3 Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.
