Verse 12. By the hands of the apostles] This verse should be read with the 15th, to which it properly belongs. Solomon's porch.] See the note on John x. 23.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 12. And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought , etc.] That is, by their means, or by them as instruments, or through the imposition of their hands on persons, many miraculous and wonderful cures, as well as other extraordinary actions, were performed: among the people ; the common people, who attended in great numbers on their ministry, when the chief men and rulers of the nation despised them. And they were all with one accord in Solomon�s porch ; which is to be understood not of the whole church, nor of the hundred and twenty disciples, but of the twelve apostles, who met in this place to preach the Gospel to the people; and they were agreed in their doctrine and practice, and were united in their affections to one another. Of Solomon�s porch, (See Gill on � John 10:23�). These words, with what follow to the 15th verse, are to be read in a parenthesis.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 12-16 - The separation of hypocrites by distinguishing judgments, should make the sincere cleave closer to each other and to the gospel ministry Whatever tends to the purity and reputation of the church, promotes it enlargement; but that power alone which wrought such miracles by the apostles, can rescue sinners from the power of sin and Satan, and ad believers to His worshippers. Christ will work by all his faithfu servants; and every one who applies to him shall be healed.
