This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Act 3:6. Ἀργύριον καὶ χρύσιον, silver and gold) The beggar was expecting money.-οὐχ ὑπάρχει μοι, I have none) There is no doubt but that alms were given even to those who were not of the community of believers: but Peter at that time, either had nothing with him in going to the temple, or was not able to give as much as was needed for the relief of the poor man. Observe the abstinence of the apostle, though exercising such an ample administration of charitable funds: ch. Act 2:45, with which comp. ch. Act 4:35.-Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ, of Jesus Christ) Jesus therefore is the Christ.
