Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Acts 17:31

COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD

31. Because he hath appointed a day in the which he will judge the world —Such language beyond doubt teaches that the judgment will, in its essence, be a solemn judicial assize held upon all mankind at once. "Aptly is this uttered on the Areopagus, the seat of judgment" [BENGEL]. by that man whom he hath ordained —compare John 5:22 ; John 5:23 ; John 5:27 ; Acts 10:42 . whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead —the most patent evidence to mankind at large of the judicial authority with which the Risen One is clothed. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-32" class="com-number"
