Discovery BoxActs 4:10-12 
Context4:10 let it be known to all of you and to all the people of Israel that by the name of Jesus Christ 1 the Nazarene whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, this man stands before you healthy. 4:11 This Jesus 2 is the stone that was rejected by you, 3 the builders, that has become the cornerstone. 4 4:12 And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among people 5 by which we must 6 be saved.”
1 tn Or “Messiah”; both “Christ” (Greek) and “Messiah” (Hebrew and Aramaic) mean “one who has been anointed.”
2 tn Grk “This one”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
3 tn The word “you” is inserted into the quotation because Peter is making a direct application of Ps 118:22 to his hearers. Because it is not in the OT, it has been left as normal type (rather than bold italic). The remarks are like Acts 2:22-24 and 3:12-15.
4 sn A quotation from Ps 118:22 which combines the theme of rejection with the theme of God’s vindication/exaltation.
5 tn Here ἀνθρώποις (anqrwpoi") has been translated as a generic noun (“people”).
6 sn Must be saved. The term used here (δεῖ, dei, “it is necessary”) reflects the necessity set up by God’s directive plan.
