Acts 2:2 - Additional Comments

Note that they, at this point, were in a house. They were indoors.
The sounds came suddenly, not gradually, as if the Spirit burst into the room. It was a sound characteristic of the Spirit -- like wind (John 3:8).
The sound didn't come from one direction - it filled the room, was all around them. It must have been a tremendous sound, because it could be heard all around Jerusalem - thousands heard it and came to see what produced the sound (verse 6).
