Hechos 1:17 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 1:17

For he was numbered with us
He was chosen an apostle with: the rest, and was ordained into that office when they were, and was always reckoned one of the twelve, and stands in the catalogue when they are mentioned:

and had obtained part of this ministry;
by lot, as the word signifies; the providence of God so ordering it, according to his eternal purpose and decree, that he was not only called an apostle, and enrolled among them, but he really had a part in that ministry; he preached, and baptized, and wrought miracles; and besides all this, carried the bag, was the treasurer, and a sort of a steward in Christ's family, and provided for it.

Hechos 1:17 In-Context

15 Por aquel tiempo Pedro se puso de pie en medio de los hermanos (un grupo como de ciento veinte personas estaba reunido all铆), y dijo:
16 Hermanos, ten铆a que cumplirse la Escritura en que por boca de David el Esp铆ritu Santo predijo acerca de Judas, el que se hizo gu铆a de los que prendieron a Jes煤s.
17 Porque era contado entre nosotros y recibi贸 parte en este ministerio.
18 (Este, pues, con el precio de su infamia adquiri贸 un terreno, y cayendo de cabeza se revent贸 por el medio, y todas sus entra帽as se derramaron.
19 Y esto lleg贸 al conocimiento de todos los que habitaban en Jerusal茅n, de manera que aquel terreno se llam贸 en su propia lengua Ac茅ldama, es decir, campo de sangre.)
