Acts 8:15 in Context — Acts 8

13 E até mesmo Simão creu; e tendo sido batizado, ele continuou com Filipe; e vendo os sinais e maravilhas que eram feitas, ele ficou admirado.

14 E os apóstolos que estavam em Jerusalém, ao ouvirem que Samaria tinha recebido a palavra de Deus, enviaram-lhes a Pedro e a João.

15 Os quais, tendo descido, oraram por eles, para que recebessem ao Espírito Santo.

16 (Porque ainda sobre nenhum deles tinha descido; mas somente tinham sido batizados no nome do Senhor Jesus).

17 Então puseram as mãos sobre eles, e receberam o Espírito Santo.
