Although the context is the 120 men and women at Acts 1:15, can’t you see that the context changes from the 120 men and women to the 11 apostles from Acts 1:20? What do you think is the meaning of; ‘and his bishoprick let another take,’ or as the NIV renders it; ‘May another take his place of leadership.’ Women weren’t ever leaders in the Church and so the context here changes from the 120 men and women to the 11 apostles. The masculine pronoun ‘his’ as in ‘his bishoprick’ implies men alone, which again precludes the company of 120 men and women.

PS: I'm also looking at the masculine pronoun autos at Acts 1:20 and I hope to reply shortly once I've gone to the university library to look up this word.
What in the world does this have to do with what you quoted me saying?

IF you continue to just ignore other peoples arguments just to make your own then you will have to take another vacation. Please address my previous several posts that you have not answered to or addressed each point, point by point, as you insist we do for you.

Your post here does not address any point I have made so far and infact totally ignores them
