Hechos 2:22-34 NVI

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 2:24

24. Whom God hath raised Now comes the great sequel to this crucifixion the resurrection. The listeners knew the crucifixion; the apostles, as Peter will assure them, (Acts 2:32,) knew the resurrection. But first he will prove it by testimony infallible, namely, testimony before the fact, being Divine prophecy. Loosed the pains of death In his resurrection Jesus was not released from the “pains of death,” for they had ceased when he expired. In Psalms 18:5, the Hebrew word for ... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 2:25

25. Concerning him Namely, Christ. The quotation is from Psalm xvi, which psalm the best Christian interpreters apply to Christ truly, no doubt, if it be true that David, even as a representative man, speaks in the first person of the Messiah, the Holy One. (Acts 2:27.) This is an epithet that no mere man is entitled to apply to himself; and if it could be truly applied to any being, that being would be entitled never to see corruption. If David were truly inspired, he could mean such a... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 2:27

27. Hell The place of departed spirits, Hades. (See notes on Luke 16:23,) Thine Holy One A term which David under inspiration would hardly apply to himself simply. Corruption Rationalists have denied that the Hebrew word used by David signifies corruption; but they are refuted on this point by Hengstenberg. As he well remarks, corruption refers to the body, as Hades refers to the soul. Good proof that in both David’s and Peter’s theology body and soul are different things, and may... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 2:29

29. Freely speak In spite of your great reverence for David. Patriarch Evincing his profound respect for David by this unusual, but most venerable title, which belonged more strictly to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and his twelve sons, the fathers of the twelve tribes. Sepulchre is with us And the “tomb of David” is still standing on the brow of Mount Zion. From Nehemiah 3:16, we learn that “the sepulchre of David” was near to a “pool that was made;” and the present tomb is near the pool of... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 2:30

30. A prophet In the sense both of speaking by inspiration and of predicting the future. An oath In 2 Samuel 7:5-16, God promises to David a successorship on the throne forever; in <19D211>Psalms 132:11, David affirms that God had so sworn; both in consequence of David’s determination to build a house for Jehovah. Fruit of his loins Peter speaks as if it was, as it were, through his line of descent that David was able to look prophetically as through a line of light. Thereby he... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 2:31

31. Spake of the resurrection of Christ The word Christ signifies Messiah, and it is worth while to note how Peter changes from Christ or Messiah to Jesus in the next verse. His meaning is that Messiah was predicted as having a resurrection; that this Jesus had a resurrection we know, and, therefore, a presumption, in the surrounding circumstances, that this Jesus is Messiah. For his soul was not left in hell, a reading more probable would be, he was not left in hell. The copyist... read more

33. Therefore As the result of the whole. Exalted A clear testimony to the ascension. Shed forth this So that we have here Peter’s second answer to the question, (Acts 2:12,) What meaneth this? It is a manifestation sent down from the ascended Jesus Messiah. Peter now confirms the exalted Lordship of the ascended Jesus by further prophecy. read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 2:34

34. David is not ascended And it is not, therefore, David’s exaltation that the prediction announces. And as the Jewish Church admits that the Messiah, and he alone, is foretold in David’s psalms, so if it be not David, it must be Messiah. The Lord David’s Hebrew for Lord (Psalm cx) is JEHOVAH, which is God’s proper name; just as David is the proper name of the man so named. It is, therefore, an incommunicable name, belonging to the God of Israel alone. So solemnly did the ancient Jews... read more
