{For it is written} (gegraptai gar). Luke here returns to
the address of Peter interrupted by verses  18,19 . Perfect
passive indicative, the usual idiom in quoting scripture, stands
written.  Ps 69  is often quoted as Messianic in Matthew and
John. {His habitation} (h(8820)epaulis autou). Only here in the
N.T., a country house, cottage, cabin. {His office} (	(886e)
episkop(886e) autou). Our word bishopric (Authorized Version) is
from this word, office of bishop (episcopos). Only that is not
the idea here, but over-seership (epi, skope(935c)) or office as in
 1Pe 2:12 . It means to visit and to inspect, to look over. The
ecclesiastical sense comes later ( 1Ti 3:1 ).
