Question: What happened at Acts 28:28?
The Holy Spirit endowed on the Jews at Pentecost, and some Christians, was withdrawn at the stage of Acts 28:25–28, because the Jews rejected Jesus again, and finally at that stage, and Paul enacted the prophecy of Isa. 6:9–10; which rendered the Jews Lo-Ammi (not My people).
That condition will remain until the events of Zech.12:10, when Almighty God will keep His Word and promise to Salvage them “for My Names Sake”.
The Acts 28 event was in approx. AD62, and that of Corinthians AD57; which answers your question.
The Holy Spirit’s action at Pentecost was as the prophecy of Joel; but was withdrawn and delayed until the Jews are of right mind regarding their Messiah Christ Jesus, as is illustrated in Hosea 1 & 2!
The teaching that you allude to regarding “Holy Spirit endowment” in these times, to the same extent as post Acts 28, is not valid IMO; and the events of Joel’s prophecy now await Zech.12:10; and the “number of the Gentiles is made up” (Rom.11:25–27).
