47 praising God, and having favour with all the people; and the Lord added [to the assemblyD7730] daily those that were to be savedD7731.
assembly - See Note, ch. 3.1. saved - The remnant of Israel whom God was sparing. The Lord now added these to the Christian assembly. The present participle as here gives the character instead of the fact; as I might say, 'the being spared ones;' it is the class of persons God was then saving. It is not a doubt as to their being saved, nor a state, but a class. see Luke 13.23.
47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.
