Hechos 2:4 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 2:4

And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost
With the gifts of the Holy Spirit; they had received the Spirit before, as a Spirit of grace, and were endowed with great gifts; but now they had great plenty of them, a large abundance; they were like vessels filled to the brim; they were as it were covered with them; there was an overflow of them upon them; and now it was, that they were baptized with him; (See Gill on Acts 1:5). Not only the twelve apostles, but the seventy disciples; and it may be all the hundred and twenty, that were together, even women as well as men: ( Acts 2:17 Acts 2:18 ) .

And began to speak with other tongues;
besides, and different from that in which they were born and brought up, and usually spake; they spake divers languages, one spoke one language, and another, another; and the same person spoke with various tongues, sometimes one language, and sometimes another. These are the new tongues, Christ told them they should speak with, ( Mark 16:17 ) such as they had never heard, learned, nor known before:

as the Spirit gave them utterance;
they did not utter anything of themselves, and what came into their minds, things of little or no importance; nor in a confused and disorderly manner; but they were wise and weighty sentences they delivered, as the word signifies; even the wonderful works of God, ( Acts 2:11 ) the great doctrines of the Gospel; and though in different languages, yet in a very orderly and distinct manner, so as to be heard and understood by the people. The Vulgate Latin and Ethiopic versions read, "as the Holy Spirit"

Hechos 2:4 In-Context

2 De repente, se oyó un ruido desde el cielo parecido al estruendo de un viento fuerte e impetuoso que llenó la casa donde estaban sentados.
3 Luego, algo parecido a unas llamas o lenguas de fuego aparecieron y se posaron sobre cada uno de ellos.
4 Y todos los presentes fueron llenos del Espíritu Santo y comenzaron a hablar en otros idiomas,
conforme el Espíritu Santo les daba esa capacidad.
5 En esa ocasión, había judíos devotos de todas las naciones, que vivían en Jerusalén.
6 Cuando oyeron el fuerte ruido, todos llegaron corriendo y quedaron desconcertados al escuchar sus propios idiomas hablados por los creyentes.
