Contextual Overview
1 While Apollos was working in Corinth, Paul left Antioch in Syria and made his way through the mountains. His westerly travel finally brought him to Ephesus on the coast of the Aegean Sea. There he found some cowboys riding for the Lord and
2he asked them, "Did y'all boys get the Holy Spirit when you started riding for the Lord?"They said, "We've never even heard about a Holy Spirit."
3Paul inquired, "What type of baptism did you have?""John's baptism," they responded.
4"I see," said Paul. "John was baptizing folks to get 'em ready to ride for the Top Hand. John's baptism taught folks to turn away from their wicked ways and be ready to saddle up for the Boss."
5When they heard this, they were all baptized in the name of Jesus.
6Paul put his hands on them and the Holy Spirit filled their lives. They instantly began to preach and speak in languages they didn't know before.
7There were around twelve cowboys who saddled up for the Lord that day.

Cross-References
Acts 17:26
He started this world with one cowboy. It was through this cowboy that every ranch and every cowpoke who ever pushed a cow came to be. God decided the boundaries and how good the grass would be on each of them. He determined long ago when each would rise and fall.

Jude 1:7
Don't forget about Sodom and Gomorrah. Their people acted like those angels. They all indulged in sexual immorality and perversion. Those cities and their peoples were destroyed. Think of it like a warning shot from God for all of us not to ride those trails.

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.
