“And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people; (and they were all with one accord in Solomon’s porch.”
The apostles performed many signs and wonders among the people. And all the believers used to meet together in Solomon's Colonnade - the transition from judgment to miracles shows that the church's purity enables its power. 'Many signs and wonders' (sēmeia kai terata) mirrors the language of Jesus's ministry (Luke 4:36, 5:26). Solomon's Colonnade (stoa Solomōntos) was a covered portico on the east side of the temple, a Jewish space where apostolic authority could unfold without immediately provoking Roman concern.
