1The first account I 1composed, 2Theophilus, about all that Jesus 3began to do and teach,

2until the day when He 4was taken up to heaven, after He 5had 6by the Holy Spirit given orders to 7the apostles whom He had 8chosen.

3To 9these 10He also presented Himself alive after His suffering, by many convincing proofs, appearing to them over a period of forty days and speaking of 11the things concerning the kingdom of God.
