In context

15who, when they had come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Spirit;

16for as yet he had fallen on none of them. They had only been baptized in the name of Christ Jesus.

17Then they laid their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.

18Now when Simon saw that the Holy Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles’ hands, he offered them money,

19saying, “Give me also this power, that whomever I lay my hands on may receive the Holy Spirit.”
