Study Lenses

The verse centers on "grace", "great", "power", "gaue", "apostles", "witnes", "resurrection", and "lord". It is saying that the verse draws attention to "grace" and "great", so its meaning should be read from those terms before moving to application.

The nearby context moves from verse 32's "And the multitude of them that beleeued..." into verse 34's "Neither was there any among them that...", so "grace" and "great" belong inside that flow. In Acts context, the local focus is Christ, faith, and discipleship.

A plain takeaway is to answer the verse's own emphasis on "grace" and "great" with trust shaped by these words, not by a vague optimism outside the passage.
