# General Information:
|
|
|
|
Here the word "us" refers to the apostles and does not include the audience to whom Peter is speaking. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-exclusive]])
|
|
|
|
# Connecting Statement:
|
|
|
|
Peter finishes his speech to the believers that he began in [Acts 1:16](../01/16.md).
|
|
|
|
# It is necessary, therefore
|
|
|
|
Based on the scriptures that he quoted and on what Judas had done, Peter tells the group what they must do.
|
|
|
|
# one of the men who accompanied us ... must be a witness with us of his resurrection
|
|
|
|
Peter lists the qualifications for the man who is to replace Judas as an apostle.
|
|
|
|
# the Lord Jesus went in and out among us
|
|
|
|
Going in and out among a group of people is a metaphor for openly being part of that group. Alternate translation: "the Lord Jesus lived among us" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom]])
