Acts 2:43

And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done through the apostles.

'FEAR CAME UPON EVERY SOUL'-This may refer to the awe and reverence which fell upon these early Christians. 'There was. sense of awe at what God was doing in His world.' (Reese p. 84) 'The conviction of sin that followed Peter's preaching was no momentary panic, but filled the people with. long-lasting sense of awe. This impression was intensified by the wonders and signs which the apostles performed.' (Bruce p. 80)

This verse may also be referring to the sense of awe that came upon those outside the church (Acts 2:47). 'and restrained them from interfering with the disciples..the disciples had time to multiply and to consolidate and establish themselves before the storm of persecution fell upon them.' (P.P. Comm. p. 55)

'MANY WONDERS AND SIGNS WERE DONE THROUGH THE APOSTLES'-Which indicates: (a) They were the only ones in this chapter who had been baptized in the Holy Spirit. (b) That the gift of the Holy Spirit promised in Acts 2:38, doesn't refer to the baptism of the Holy Spirit or the immediate promise of being able to work miracles following one's conversion.

'WERE DONE'-'represents an imperfect tense verb, speaking of continual action.' (Reese p. 84)
