6 Y ahora soy sometido a juicio por la esperanza de la promesa hecha por Dios a nuestros padres:

Hechos 26:6 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 26:6

And now I stand, and am judged
Before the Roman governor, and in the presence of Agrippa:

for the hope of the promise made of God unto our fathers;
either for the hope of righteousness, life, and salvation, by the Messiah; who was promised to the Jewish fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and others; see ( Genesis 22:18 ) ( 49:10 ) or for the hope of the resurrection of the dead, and eternal life; of which there are various testimonies in the writings of the Old Testament, committed to the people of the Jews. ( Job 19:26 Job 19:27 ) ( Isaiah 26:19 ) ( Daniel 12:2 ) and others; and both these senses may be very well joined together, for it was for asserting that the promised Messiah was come, and that Jesus of Nazareth was he; that he was risen from the dead, and that all the dead will be raised by him; and that life and righteousness, salvation, and everlasting glory and happiness, are only by him; for asserting these things, I say, the apostle was now a prisoner, and stood at the bar of a Roman judge, being accused by the Jews.

Hechos 26:6 In-Context

4 Pues bien, todos los judíos conocen mi vida desde mi juventud, que desde el principio transcurrió entre los de mi pueblo y en Jerusalén;
5 puesto que ellos han sabido de mí desde hace mucho tiempo, si están dispuestos a testificar, que viví como fariseo, de acuerdo con la secta más estricta de nuestra religión.
6 Y ahora soy sometido a juicio por la esperanza de la promesa hecha por Dios a nuestros padres:
7 que nuestras doce tribus esperan alcanzar al servir fielmente a Dios noche y día. Y por esta esperanza, oh rey, soy acusado por los judíos.
8 ¿Por qué se considera increíble entre vosotros que Dios resucite a los muertos?
