Neither was there any among them that lacked, etc.] Bread to eat, or clothes to wear, or any of the necessaries of life; which shows their great charity, and gives a reason why they were in so much favour with the people, because they took so much care of their poor; and this flowed from the grace of God bestowed upon them: for as many as were possessors of lands and houses; or “vineyards”, as the Ethiopic version reads, whether in Jerusalem or elsewhere; sold them and brought the prices of the things that were sold; whether lands, houses, or vineyards.
