New Testament Lesson:….Acts 2:1-13.……..Beverly B.
2:1 When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place.
 
2:2 And suddenly from heaven there came a sound like the rush of a violent wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting.
 
2:3 Divided tongues, as of fire, appeared among them, and a tongue rested on each of them.
 
2:4 All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other languages, as the Spirit gave them ability.
 
2:5 Now there were devout Jews from every nation under heaven living in Jerusalem.
 
2:6 And at this sound the crowd gathered and was bewildered, because each one heard them speaking in the native language of each.
 
2:7 Amazed and astonished, they asked, “Are not all these who are speaking Galileans?
 
2:8 And how is it that we hear, each of us, in our own native language?
 
2:9 Parthians, Medes, Elamites, and residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,
 
2:10 Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya belonging to Cyrene, and visitors from Rome, both Jews and proselytes,
 
2:11 Cretans and Arabs–in our own languages we hear them speaking about God’s deeds of power.”
 
2:12 All were amazed and perplexed, saying to one another, “What does this mean?”
 
2:13 But others sneered and said, “They are filled with new wine.”
