Acts 5:12 Douay-Rheims

And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people. And they were all with one accord in Solomon’s porch.

George Leo Haydock

1774–1849 Catholic

Solomon’s porch. This was outside of the temple, open to all, Jews and Gentiles, pure and impure. They assembled here, because it was a large place, where they could speak to many assembled. Had it been within the temple, the priests would have interrupted them, and not have wanted pretexts to silence them. (Calmet)
