Atos 13:29 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 13:29

And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him,
&c.] When they had vilified and reproached him in the most opprobrious manner; buffeted and scourged him, and pierced his hands and his feet, by nailing him to the cross; when they had crucified him between two thieves, and parted his raiment and cast lots on his vesture; when they had pierced his side, and it was sufficiently evident that his life was taken from the earth; all which were written of him in the Psalms and Prophets:

they took him down from the tree;
the cross, on which he was crucified: it may be rendered impersonally, "he was taken down from the tree"; for not the same persons that desired he might be slain, and fulfilled all that was written of him, took him down, but others; though they were some of the rulers, as Joseph of Arimathea, and Nicodemus, yet such as did not consent to his death:

and laid him in a sepulchre;
in a new one, in which never man lay; a sepulchre which Joseph had hewed out of a rock for himself, and which was both sealed and guarded.

Atos 13:29 In-Context

27 Pois, os que habitam em Jerusalém e as suas autoridades, porquanto não conheceram a este Jesus, condenando-o, cumpriram as mesmas palavras dos profetas que se ouvem ler todos os sábados.

28 E, se bem que não achassem nele nenhuma causa de morte, pediram a Pilatos que ele fosse morto.

29 Quando haviam cumprido todas as coisas que dele estavam escritas, tirando-o do madeiro, o puseram na sepultura;

30 mas Deus o ressuscitou dentre os mortos;

31 e ele foi visto durante muitos dias por aqueles que com ele subiram da Galiléia a Jerusalém, os quais agora são suas testemunhas para com o povo.
