And still, no one knew what He meant with the cloven tongues of fire, did they?

Did they know they would speak in tongues?

Did they know just what their future was?

No, but the Charismatics of today think they can spread this activity through tarrying, through laying on of hands, all something that ended over 1900 years ago.

It is not me who does not know the subject.

Peter himself said that the prophesy was fulfilled on Pentacost, not being fulfilled today.

(Acts 2:14 KJV) But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words:

(Acts 2:15 KJV) For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day.

(Acts 2:16 KJV) But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;

(Acts 2:17 KJV) And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:

(Acts 2:18 KJV) And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:

(Acts 2:19 KJV) And I will show wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:

(Acts 2:20 KJV) The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come:

(Acts 2:21 KJV) And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

That prophesy was fulfilled on Pentacost, and Peter said so.

That is one slippery slope you are on, there, pal [grin]. If you start saying that the NT tells us that it contains the normative hermeneutic for interpreting OT prophetical passages, you might wind up with Waltke.
