Mount Olivet: Site of the ascension; located just outside of Jerusalem
A Sabbath days journey: .5 to .75 mile
Casting lots: Similiar to throwing dice; two lots would have been placed in a cup and the first to fall out when tipped would have been considered the will of God

How to Get the Most From this Blog
While some of the posts here are independent articles, many of these discussions arise from texts in which I am preaching. Notice the sermon designated in the title. For example: (sermon Acts 1:12-26) refers to a sermon preached on this passage which can be heard at http://www.LivingWithTheCross.org. The discussion here supplements the sermon. Let me encourage you to visit the website and listen to some of the sermons.
