Atos 10:39 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 10:39

And we are witnesses of all things
That is, Peter, and the rest of the apostles, were witnesses, even eyewitnesses, of Christ's going about from place to place, and of the good he did every where, and of the miracles which he wrought; and even of every thing

which he did both in the land of the Jews;
which takes in not only Judea, but Galilee, and beyond Jordan;

and in Jerusalem;
the metropolis of Judea:

whom they slew and hanged on a tree;
whom the Jews put to death; for since it was by their instigation, and at their request, it is ascribed to them; and who not content with any death, desired he might be crucified, or hanged on a tree; partly because of the pain and torture of it, and partly because of the shame and ignominy that attended it; as well as to throw off the scandal of his death from themselves to the Romans, crucifixion being a Roman punishment.

Atos 10:39 In-Context

37 esta palavra, vós bem sabeis, foi proclamada por toda a Judéia, começando pela Galiléia, depois do batismo que João pregou,

38 concernente a Jesus de Nazaré, como Deus o ungiu com o Espírito Santo e com poder; o qual andou por toda parte, fazendo o bem e curando a todos os oprimidos do Diabo, porque Deus era com ele.

39 Nós somos testemunhas de tudo quanto fez, tanto na terra dos judeus como em Jerusalém; ao qual mataram, pendurando-o num madeiro.

40 A este ressuscitou Deus ao terceiro dia e lhe concedeu que se manifestasse,

41 não a todo povo, mas �s testemunhas predeterminadas por Deus, a nós, que comemos e bebemos juntamente com ele depois que ressurgiu dentre os mortos;
