Acts2:45

45 And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men , as every man had need.

Those proportions of their estate they set apart to this charitable work; whether they did arise out of the sale of House and Land, called possessions, or of any Chattels or moveable estate▪ called here goods; but that they did not divest themselves of all propriety, appears in that we find soon after this, Chap. 12.12. Mary the mother of St. Mark to have a house, and Lydia after she was baptized, did not renounce any propriety in her house, Chap. 16.15. but intreated St. Paul, and those who were with him, to come into her House▪ &c.

Marginal references: Isa. 58.7.
