Acts 2:4

They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other languages (tongues, languages other than their mother tongue), as the Spirit gave them words to speak (clear and distinct pronunciation, words inspired by God).
[The place where they were gathered is not specified other than that "the house" is mentioned in verse 2. Jesus had told them not to leave Jerusalem, see Acts 1:4, so they were somewhere in the city. They were in the habit of meeting in the upper room, see Acts 1:13. In the Old Testament, "the house" is a common term for the temple in Jerusalem, see Josh. 6:24; 1 Sam. 1:7; 1 Kings 6:1; Ps. 23:6. Later in Acts 7:47, the term is also used in this way. If they were not in the temple, they were at least nearby, since the people gathered there during the feast at nine o'clock in the morning for the first prayer, see Acts 2:6, 15. Excavations at the south entrance of the temple show that there were a large number of large pools, miqveh in Hebrew. Before a pilgrim entered the temple, a purification bath in such a baptismal font was required. If the location is in one of the porticoes or at one of the temple entrances, it explains practically how 3,000 people could hear Peter preach and later be baptized, see Acts 2:41.]
