People's Commentary (NT)
Acts 2:3
There appeared unto them cloven tongues. Luminous tongues sat on
each of them, "parting asunder" (Revised Version), or "distributing
themselves" (margin). Meyer says that the idea is that they parted and
distributed themselves on those present. These tongues symbolized the
fact that the kingdom now inaugurated was to conquer by the spoken
word, by the sword of the Spirit.
