NET © Notes

tn Or “You put to death.”

tn Or “Founder,” “founding Leader.”

sn Whom God raised. God is the main actor here, as he testifies to Jesus and vindicates him.

tn Grk “whom God raised from the dead, of which we are witnesses.” The two consecutive relative clauses make for awkward English style, so the second was begun as a new sentence with the words “to this fact” supplied in place of the Greek relative pronoun to make a complete sentence in English.

sn We are witnesses. Note the two witnesses here, Peter and John (Acts 5:32; Heb 2:3-4).
