Acts 2:33 - Forerunner Commentary

Acts 2:33

31 he, foreseeing this, spoke concerning the resurrection of the Christ, ^athat His soul was not left in Hades, nor did His flesh see corruption.

32 ^aThis Jesus God has raised up, ^bof which we are all witnesses.

33 Therefore ^abeing exalted to ^bthe right hand of God, and ^chaving received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, He ^dpoured out this which you now see and hear.

34 “For David did not ascend into the heavens, but he says himself:
^a‘The Lord said to my Lord,
“Sit at My right hand,

35 Till I make Your enemies Your footstool.” ’

36 “Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ.”

37 Now when they heard this, ^athey were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Men and brethren, what shall we do?”

38 Then Peter said to them, ^a“Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the¹ remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

39 For the promise is to you and ^ato your children, and ^bto all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our God will call.”
