40 Him aGod raised up on the third day, and showed Him openly,  
41 anot to all the people, but to witnesses chosen before by God, even to us bwho ate and drank with Him after He arose from the dead.  
42 And aHe commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify bthat it is He who was ordained by God to be Judge cof the living and the dead.  
43 aTo Him all the prophets witness that, through His name, bwhoever believes in Him will receive cremission of sins.”

Acts 10:42

He charged (parhggeilen). First aorist active indicative as in Acts 1:4. There Jesus is the subject and so probably here, though Page insists that o qeov (God) is here because of verse Acts 10:40.

To testify (diamarturasqai). First aorist middle infinitive. See on Acts 2:40.

Ordained (wrismenov). Perfect passive participle of orizw, old verb, to mark out, to limit, to make a horizon.

Judge (krithv). The same point made by Peter in I Peter 4:5. He does not use the word "Messiah" to these Gentiles though he did say "anointed" (exrisen) in verse Acts 10:38. Peter's claim for Jesus is that he is the Judge of Jew and Gentile (living and dead).
