How much time passed between the outpouring of
Acts 2 and the installation of these men in early church leadership in
Acts 6?
Obviously, we don't know when these men were saved or how long they had been in the early church prior to their becoming leaders.
I find it interesting, though, that verse 5 is specific about one being a convert. Now, I admit that "proselyte" may be referring more to his origin rather than his newness in the faith.
