Acts 2:39

Last summer, I found a note from two years previous that I'd forgotten to write about here.  I read Acts 2 and noticed a small instance of polysyndeton in verse 39:
"For the promise is for you and for your children and for all who are far off, everyone whom the Lord our God calls to himself." [ESV]
The repetition of "and" lends a slight sense of this multitude ("all" and "everyone").
