“And it was about the space of three hours after, when his wife, not knowing what was done, came in.”
Acts 5:7 (KJV)
Commentary on Acts 5:7
The temporal note - 'it was about the space of three hours after' - provided Sapphira opportunity to repent independently. She 'came in' ignorant of her husband's death, facing the same test he failed. The three-hour gap suggests neither premature warning nor insufficient time for reflection. God's timing gave her maximum opportunity while ensuring independent verification of conspiracy. This detail demonstrates divine fairness - both received identical opportunity to truth or maintain deception.
