Back in the days when F. F. Bruce was alive, he was regarded as a very conservative evangelical scholar. Now -- I wonder. The Greek text of this book is the United Bible Societies' edition, and Bruce for the most part accepts its text.
That means that it is very far from the Greek text underlying the King James and New King James versions. And there seems to be a rising movement by the most conservative Christians -- at least in the United States -- to return to that "Byzantine"/King James text-form. And so Bruce -- conservative as he is in most regards -- suddenly finds himself in a relatively liberal position on the text of Acts.
Should it matter? I don't know. This is a very thorough, intelligent, and relatively conservative commentary. In this most historical of the New Testament books, it makes a serious attempt to relate the events of the text to those of the outside world. It also looks at their meaning. It seems to me that it is very useful to both liberal and conservative students of Acts. But it really does use a modern, critical text. If that isn't acceptable... you have been warned. ( )

INTRODUCTION
I. AUTHORSHIP OF ACTS
A. External Evidence
The earliest surviving statements about the authorship of Acts belong to the last quarter of the second century.
PREFACE TO THE REVISED EDITION -- When this commentary first appeared, in September 1951, it could fairly be claimed that there was room for a one-volume commentary on the Greek text of Acts, "neither too technical nor too popular for the requirements of ordinary students."
