Contextual Overview

1 And while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul travelled over the upper countries to Ephesus. And he inquired of the disciples whom he found there, 2 Have ye received the Holy Spirit, since ye believed? They answered and said to him: If there be a Holy Spirit, it hath not come to our hearing. 3 He said to them: Into what then were ye baptized? They say: Into the baptism of John. 4 Paul said to them: John baptized the people with the baptism of repentance, while he told them to believe in him who was to come after him, that is, in Jesus the Messiah. 5 And when they heard these things, they were baptized in the name of our Lord Jesus Messiah. 6 And Paul laid [fn] hand on them; and the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they spoke in various tongues, and prophesied. 7 And all the persons were twelve.

Romans 1:24
For this cause, God gave them up to the filthy lusts of their heart, to dishonor their bodies with them.
Jude 1:7
As Sodom and Gomorrah, and the surrounding cities, which in like manner followed whoredom and went after strange flesh, are placed beneath everlasting fire, being, doomed to judgment.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And all the men were about twelve. The Syriac, Arabic, and Ethiopic versions, have not the word "about"; but affirm, that the men were twelve; and indeed the number being so small, the historian might be at a certainty about it: these seem to be the first materials of a Gospel church at Ephesus, which afterwards was very large and flourishing, and very likely were some of the elders of it.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

And all the men - The whole number.
