Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Acts 2:22-28

_ _ a man approved of God — rather, “authenticated,” “proved,” or “demonstrated to be from God.”

_ _ by miracles ... which God did by him — This is not a low view of our Lord’s miracles, as has been alleged, nor inconsistent with John 2:11, but is in strict accordance with His progress from humiliation to glory, and with His own words in John 5:19. This view of Christ is here dwelt on to exhibit to the Jews the whole course of Jesus of Nazareth as the ordinance and doing of the God of Israel [Alford].

Matthew Henry's Commentary

(5) Christ, being innocent, was by God's providence crucified by wicked men.

(o) Who is by those works which God did by him so manifestly approved and admitted of, that no man can deny him.
