使徒行傳 10:36-38 CUNPTS

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 10:38

Verse 38 38.Jesus of Nazareth. He calleth him a Nazarite here, not because he was born there, but because he came thence to execute his office; again, because he was surnamed thus commonly. He saith that he was anointed with the Spirit and power by hypallage. For the power wherein Christ exceeded proceeded from the Spirit alone. Therefore, when as the heavenly Father anointed his Son, he furnished him with the power of his Spirit. Peter saith immediately after, that this power appeared in... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Acts 10:1-48

Broadening foundations. The promises of God to "Abraham and his seed for ever" are not going to be diminished now, but something of the extent of them is to be made more plain. Nothing shall be taken from the Jew which he is willing to have and to keep; but much is going to be given, with a manifestation unknown before, to the Gentile. With some form of vision, of dream, of angel-appearance, the covenant of long ages ago was made with the patriarch, and it seems that now, some nineteen... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Acts 10:9-48

Man in God's sight; or, Divine impartiality. The incident of the conversion of Cornelius is suggestive of some important truths, but of one in particular, viz. the perfectness of the Divine impartiality. We look first, however, at— I. THE PART OF THE PHYSICAL IN THE APPREHENSION OF THE SPIRITUAL . Peter went up to pray ( Acts 10:9 ); but he was very hungry and desired bodily refreshment ( Acts 10:10 ). This state of body was probably favorable to his "falling... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Acts 10:23-43

The first trumpet-sound of the gospel in the heathen world. I. A REPRESENTATIVE ASSEMBLY . 1. Cornelius, his kinsmen, his near friends, probably some of them devout soldiers. 2. Peter, his brethren from Joppa. The different states of mind. Inquiry after truth, perplexity as to duty. The helplessness of the heathen world well set forth in Cornelius's salutation. The sense of darkness and spiritual want a temptation to worship men instead of God. The false Church accepts such... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Acts 10:34-43

Discourse of Peter at Caesarea. I. THE EQUAL JUSTICE AND LOVE OF GOD . He is no respecter of persons. The conditions of acceptance in his sight are everywhere and for all men the same, viz. reverence and rightness of moral conduct. Does this imply, it matters not what a man believes, so long as he fears God and does what is right? Certainly, belief is not immediately under the control of the will. But indirectly it so far is that we are bound to keep our minds open to the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Acts 10:34-48

The great surprise. How seldom do things turn out as we expect! What frequent proofs we have that God's thoughts are not as our thoughts, nor his ways as our ways! And yet we are always making iron cages in which we think to confine the operations of God's Spirit, as well as the thoughts of men, and are surprised when either God or men refused to be confined within their bars. The pride of caste is perhaps that which, more than any other one cause, tends to mislead our judgment and to... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Acts 10:36

The universal proclamation. "Preaching peace by Jesus Christ." Taking Cornelius as an example of a devout heathen, show that the world needed a new proclamation of peace, both to individuals and to nations. A personal name must be announced; for it must be preached, not by wars and worldly power, but by persuasion and appeal to the heart. I. THE MESSAGE — PEACE . 1. Peace between man and God in atonement. 2. Peace rising up as a wellspring of new life in the heart. 3. ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Acts 10:37

That saying ye yourselves know for that word, I say, ye know, A.V.; beginning for and began, A.V. The construction of Acts 10:36 , Acts 10:37 , and Acts 10:38 , is somewhat difficult, but by far the easiest and most natural way, both as regards grammar and sense , is to make ὑμεῖς οἴδατε govern τὸν λόγον directly: You, Gentiles, well know the word which God sent to the Israelites, when he caused the gospel of peace to be preached to them, the word, namely, which... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Acts 10:37-43

The gospel for the heathen. Under the Divine inspiration, St. Peter preached the gospel to this company of devout Gentiles; and we can find both I. THE CHRIST WHO LIVED . "God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power, who went about doing good." II. THE CHRIST WHO DIED . "Whom they slew and hanged on a tree." III. THE CHRIST WHO LAWS . "Him God raised up the third day, and showed him openly." IV. THE CHRIST WHO CAN SAVE ... read more
