The Pulpit Commentary - Acts 3:22-26

The greatness of Jesus Christ. These verses may be regarded as attesting the unapproachable greatness of the Lord Jesus Christ; they invite us to think— I. THAT HE WAS LIKE UNTO THE GREATEST OF ALL WHO PRECEDED HIM , BUT WAS GREATER THAN HE . ( Acts 3:22 .) A greater Legislator than Moses, for his laws should last as long as time itself; a better Man, for he was absolutely without sin; a worthier Leader, conducting out of a harder bondage into... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Acts 3:22

For Moses truly said - The authority of Moses among the Jews was absolute and final. It was of great importance, therefore, to show not only that they were not departing from his Law, but that he had actually foretold these very things. The object of the passage is not to prove that the heavens must receive him, but that he was truly the Messiah.Unto the fathers - To their ancestors, or the founders of the nation. See Deuteronomy 18:15-19.A Prophet - Literally, one who foretells future events.... read more

Acts 3:22-23 . For Moses The first of these prophets, whose writings have come down to us; truly said unto the fathers In his early days; A prophet shall the Lord raise up unto you Namely, in after times; of your brethren Of the posterity of Jacob; (see the note on Deuteronomy 18:15;) like unto me And that in many particulars. Moses instituted the Jewish Church: Christ instituted the Christian. With the prophesying of Moses was soon joined the effect, the deliverance of Israel from... read more

3:1-5:42 RAPID GROWTH AND GREAT POPULARITYPreaching in the temple (3:1-26)On one of their visits to the temple, Peter and John healed a crippled beggar.

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Acts 3:22

Moses indeed said, A prophet shall the Lord God raise up unto you from among your brethren, like unto me; and to him shall ye hearken in all things whatsoever he shall speak unto you. And it shall be, that every soul that shall not hearken to that prophet shall be utterly destroyed from among the people.THE PROPHET LIKE UNTO MOSESPeter pressed his appeal by his presentation of Christ as the mighty Prophet like unto Moses. This quotation is from Deuteronomy 18:15ff, which emphasizes the typical... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Acts 3:22-23

Acts 3:22-23. A prophet shall the Lord, &c.— See the note on Deuteronomy 18:15; Deuteronomy 18:22. The word hear, Act 3:23 signifies to obey. One cannot imagine a more masterly address than this, to warn the Jews of the dreadful consequence of their infidelity, in the very words of Moses their favourite prophet; out of a pretended zeal for whom, they were ready to reject Christianity, and to attempt its destruction. read more

Peter takes it for granted that, in the light of all he had just said, it would be seen at once that One only had any claim to be that Prophet. him shall ye hear in all things, &c.—This part of the prediction is emphatically added, in order to shut up the audience to the obedience of faith, on pain of being finally "cut off"... read more

Peter’s address in Solomon’s colonnade 3:11-26As is often true in Acts, an event led to an explanation (cf. ch. 2)."It seems strange, at first glance, that in his narrative Luke would place two such similar sermons of Peter so close together. But his putting the Pentecost sermon in the introductory section of Acts was evidently meant to be a kind of paradigm of early apostolic preaching-a paradigm Luke seems to have polished for greater literary effectiveness. As for the Colonnade sermon, Luke... read more
