Acts 10:40 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 10:40

Him God raised up the third day
According to the Scriptures, particularly ( Hosea 6:2 ) . The resurrection, of Christ, though it is sometimes ascribed to himself, as God, whereby he was declared to be the Son of God, yet generally to God the Father, as here:

and showed him openly;
in a glorious body, and yet numerically the same he before lived and suffered in, so as to be heard, seen, and handled; by which full proof was given of the truth of his resurrection, in which he appeared to be the conqueror over death and the grave.

Acts 10:40 In-Context

38 You know about Jesus from Nazareth, that God gave him the Holy Spirit and power. You know how Jesus went everywhere doing good and healing those who were ruled by the devil, because God was with him.

39 We saw what Jesus did in Judea and in Jerusalem, but the Jews in Jerusalem killed him by hanging him on a cross.

40 Yet, on the third day, God raised Jesus to life and caused him to be seen,

41 not by all the people, but only by the witnesses God had already chosen. And we are those witnesses who ate and drank with him after he was raised from the dead.

42 He told us to preach to the people and to tell them that he is the one whom God chose to be the judge of the living and the dead.
