Hechos 26:6

Listen to Hechos 26:6
6 Y ahora me juzgan por la esperanza que tengo en la promesa que Dios hizo a nuestros antepasados.

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 »Todos los judíos saben cómo he vivido desde que era niño, desde mi edad temprana entre mi gente y también en Jerusalén.
5 Ellos me conocen desde hace mucho tiempo y pueden atestiguar, si quieren, que viví como fariseo, de acuerdo con la secta más estricta de nuestra religión.
6 Y ahora me juzgan por la esperanza que tengo en la promesa que Dios hizo a nuestros antepasados.
7 Esta es la promesa que nuestras doce tribus esperan alcanzar rindiendo culto a Dios con diligencia día y noche. Es por esta esperanza, oh rey, por lo que me acusan los judíos.
8 ¿Por qué les parece a ustedes increíble que Dios resucite a los muertos?
