present were Peter, John, James and Andrew; Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and
Matthew; James son of Alphaeus and Simon the Zealot, and Judas son of James. (4)
14 They all joined
together constantly in prayer, along with the women and Mary the mother of
Jesus, and with his brothers.
15 In those days Peter
stood up among the believers (a group numbering about a hundred and twenty)
