1:1-5 - “The promise of the Father” is for me - the key to this
passage. In Romans 9:4-5, 8 blessings are spelled out for Israel,
which are transferred to Gentiles also in the “One New Man” of
Ephesians. The sixth of these blessings is “the promises.” I
believe Acts 1:4, “the promise of the Father” - is perhaps the
key promise of all from the Father to Israel and to us. In the Gospel
of John 13-17, Jesus prepares the disciples for His departure, and
His replacement with “the promise of the Father,” which is </span></span></span><u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="">far

1:6-12 - The disciples here missed seeing a 2000 year valley between
the two mountain peaks of “Jesus' Ascension” - and “His
Return”. Both John the Baptist and Jesus commenced their ministries
by saying, “Repent, for the Kingdom of heaven is at hand.” But -
this Kingdom promise was for the </span></span></span><u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="">inward

of us are like Jesus' 11 disciples following His Resurrection, and
