Acts 3:22 - Forerunner Commentary

Acts 3:22

20 and that He may send Jesus Christ, who was² preached to you before,

21 ^awhom heaven must receive until the times of ^brestoration of all things, ^cwhich God has spoken by the mouth of all His holy prophets since¹ the world began.

22 For Moses truly said to the fathers, ^a‘The Lord your God will raise up for you a Prophet like me from your brethren. Him you shall hear in all things, whatever He says to you.

23 And it shall be that every soul who will not hear that Prophet shall be utterly destroyed from among the people.’

24 Yes, and ^aall the prophets, from Samuel and those who follow, as many as have spoken, have also¹ foretold these days.

25 ^aYou are sons of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying to Abraham, ^b‘And in your seed all the families of the earth shall be blessed.’

26 To you ^afirst, God, having raised up His Servant Jesus, sent Him to bless you, ^bin turning away every one of you from your iniquities.”
