Although the people regarded them highly The apostles were held in high esteem by the general populace due to the miraculous signs and wonders they performed (Acts 5:12).

The latter view seems every way the more probable, 'and so the passage stands parallel with those which tell us how the people heard our Lord gladly and "came early to hear him" (Luke 21:38).Verse 13. - But for and, A.V.; howbeit for but, A.V.
