Acts 4:27 - Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown

Acts 4:27

25 who by the mouth of Your servant David have said:
^a‘Why did the nations rage,
And the people plot vain things?

26 The kings of the earth took their stand,
And the rulers were gathered together
Against the Lord and against His Christ.’

27 “For ^atruly against ^bYour holy Servant Jesus, ^cwhom You anointed, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel, were gathered together

28 ^ato do whatever Your hand and Your purpose determined before to be done.

29 Now, Lord, look on their threats, and grant to Your servants ^athat with all boldness they may speak Your word,

30 by stretching out Your hand to heal, ^aand that signs and wonders may be done ^bthrough the name of ^cYour holy Servant Jesus.”
