Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

How this worksGuide & definitions
Quick start
- Choose a book and chapter using the picker at the top.
- Read the Berean Standard Bible text in the main column.
- Hover a verse number in the passage to open a manuscript list and timeline.
- Click a verse number or use “Full verse page” for GA lookup, commentary, Greek tools, and (on ECM books) textual apparatus.
- Click any manuscript siglum (e.g. 01, P46) to open its catalog record.
This book
This book has ECM (Editio Critica Maior) apparatus at many verses — hover shows manuscripts cited at that verse. The full book catalog (all manuscripts containing Acts) is available too.
The verse page gathers everything for one address: manuscript timelines, optional ECM apparatus, weighted consensus (ECM books), Greek breakdown, and John Gill's commentary.
Two manuscript lists
ECM books show both lists: witnesses at this verse (ECM) and all manuscripts whose surviving text includes this book (book catalog). The book catalog is the same at every verse in the book.
- Book catalog
- Manuscripts whose surviving text includes this book (from the Kurzgefaßte Liste catalog). The same list appears at every verse — it is not verse-specific attestation.
- ECM
- The Editio Critica Maior (ECM) is the scholarly critical edition of the Greek New Testament. Its apparatus records which manuscripts attest each textual variant at a specific verse.
- ECM at this verse
- Manuscripts cited in the Editio Critica Maior (ECM) apparatus at this specific verse — witnesses for textual variants here. This is usually a smaller set than the full book catalog.
ECM Books tagged ECM have verse-level textual apparatus from the Editio Critica Maior. Other NT books still show the full book-level manuscript catalog on hover.
Verse page tools
- Timeline
- The timeline plots manuscript catalog dates (century or range). Click a dot or chip to open that witness. Undated manuscripts appear in a separate row.
- GA lookup
- Gregory–Aland (GA) numbers identify Greek NT manuscripts (01 = Sinaiticus, P46, 2427, etc.). Search any GA to open its catalog entry from the ~5,795-manuscript Kurzgefaßte Liste index.
- Manuscript detail
- Catalog metadata from NTVMR: date, contents, holding institution, and digitized page images when available. Links open NTVMR workspace and CSNTM when images exist.
- Weighted consensus
- For ECM books, sliders reweight manuscripts cited in the apparatus by catalog date and material type to estimate which reading has stronger witness support at each variation unit. This is an exploratory visualization — not a substitute for the printed ECM.
- Textual apparatus
- The apparatus lists variant readings at this verse: Greek options (a, b, c…), GA manuscripts supporting each reading, and lacunose marks (zz) where a witness exists for the verse but has no readable text at that spot.

John Gill's Exposition3 paragraphs
Either of the Messiah, and salvation by him, which was particularly given forth to the people of the Jews; or of the remission of sins, which was a branch of the covenant made with the house of Israel, in a spiritual sense, even the whole household of God; or of the pouring forth of the Spirit: and this promise was not only to them, but to theirs, even to as many of them as belonged to the election of grace; and whom the Lord their God would effectually call by his grace, as the last and limiting clause of the text, and which is to be connected with every part of it, shows:
and to your children: this is the rather mentioned, because these awakened, and converted souls, were not only in great concern about themselves, for their sin of crucifying Christ, but were in great distress about their children, on whom they had imprecated the guilt of Christ's blood, as upon themselves; the thought of which cut them to the heart, and made their hearts bleed, within them: wherefore to relieve them, and administer comfort to them in this their distress, the apostle informs them, that the promise of Christ, and of his grace, was not only to them, who were now called, but it was also to their children; to as many of them as the Lord God should call; and who are the children of the promise, which all the children of the flesh were not, Rom 9:6 and to these the promise should be applied, notwithstanding this dreadful imprecation of theirs:
and to all that are afar off; either in place, as those that were dispersed, among the several nations of the world; and so carried in it a comfortable aspect on the multitude of Jews, that were of every nation under heaven; or in time, who should live in ages to come; or else the Gentiles are intended, who were afar off from God and Christ, and the way of life and salvation by him; see Eph 2:12 even as many as the Lord our God shall call: not externally only, by the ministry of the word, but internally, by his grace and Spirit; with that calling, which is according to the purpose and grace of God, and is inseparably connected with eternal glory; the promise is to all such, and is made good to all such, whether they be Jews or Gentiles, fathers, or children, greater or lesser sinners. The Syriac version reads, "whom God himself shall call".

ECM books show manuscripts cited at each verse plus the full book catalog (manuscripts whose content includes this book). Epistles and other non-ECM books show the book catalog only.
Textual ApparatusThe apparatus lists variant readings at this verse: Greek options (a, b, c…), GA manuscripts supporting each reading, and lacunose marks (zz) where a witness exists for the verse but has no readable text at that spot.
Apparatus conventions and abbreviations
The raw data follows the ECM/NT Greek tradition: each row pairs a reading siglum (how the editors label that option) with the manuscripts that support it—not every abbreviation is unpacked in the scholarly print volume, but these recur in this viewer.
om.— omitted: witnesses on this row do not include the Greek word(s) printed for other readings at this place—an omission relative to manuscripts that attest the fuller text elsewhere in the apparatus.- a, b, c… — reading labels at this variation unit (first, second, third option). These are editorial sigla for Greek forms, not Gregory–Aland (GA) manuscript numbers.
- GA numbers (01, P46, 2681…) — manuscripts cited by Gregory–Aland identifiers.
zz— lacuna at this spot: counted for the verse but with no substantive text readable here when other witnesses have wording.- Word position — which Greek word/token in this verse each block refers to, numbered in the ECM segmentation used by the source data.
