It came to be used to express deep anxiety or perfound regret This is the only time it is used in the New Testement.
The people relized Just what they had done in crusifying Jesus there hearts were broken.
Everyone had a hand in the deathe of Christ.
Note the power of the cross.
Those who herd Peter’s words took them personally, many of them had lickly agreed with the action of putting Jesus to death.

With many other words-denotes that this is a summery that Luke gave and not Peter’s entire message.
Those who accepted his message were baptized- It is dificult to imagine how 3,000 could be baptized by water all at one time, this dificulty is removed by concluding that this was spirit Baptisism and not water Baptisim
Many of Peter’s hearers accepted what he said and indicated there acceptence by being baptized the resault was 3,000 to the church.
this figure is large and is likly not an exact figure, but how it is discribes a a large figure.
It would not have been unusual though for a crowd this large to gather
Luke lastly records what happened to the new converts.
four activities are stated.
These are four seperate things they devoted themselves to:
Teaching- They contuned to learn under the teaching of the apposles.
Fellowshiop-great quality of togetherness.
Breaking of Bread
Prayer -The early christians knew that they could not meet life in thir own strength and that they did not need to.
They always went to God before they went out to the world.
Christians live in reverence because they know that the whole earth is the temple of the living God
