Acts 5:14 Context
12¶ And by the hands of the Apostles, were many signes and wonders wrought among the people. (And they were all with one accord in Solomons porch. 13And of the rest durst no man ioyne himselfe to them: But the people magnified them. 14And beleeuers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women.) 15Insomuch þt they brought foorth the sicke into the streetes, and layed them on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by, might ouershadow some of them. 16There came also a multitude out of the cities round about vnto Hierusalem, bringing sicke folkes, and them which were vexed with vncleane spirits: and they were healed euery one.

Ac 5:14 Both of men and women. This is one of a number of instances in which women are named in early church history. As remarked elsewhere, at first the converts were mainly men. See PNT "Ac 4:4". Now there are also women.
