An interesting post, which claims

'If hospitality was one of the many functions of these people, i.e. meetings were held in their homes (upper rooms in these wealthy homes could hold 50-60 people)....'

Acts appears to say that there were only 120 believers in total after Jesus ascended (although 500 supposedly saw him)

The usual tactic is to say that that was just the number meeting in the upper room.

However, the upper room would have been too small.

Maybe the room was made of the same material as the baskets that held all the loaves and fishes.

And you know this how? Have you visited the upper room of the house in question to attest to this statement?

I know it is true, because it was a Christian who said how many people such a room could house.
