Acts 3:11-13
New Catholic Bible

11 Peter Speaks to the People.[a] While he continued to cling to Peter and John, all the people came running in amazement toward them in Solomon’s Portico, as it is called. 12 When Peter saw the people assembling, he addressed them:

“Men of Israel, why are you so surprised at this? Why do you stare at us, as though we had enabled this man to walk by our own power or holiness? 13 The God of Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our ancestors, has glorified his servant[b] Jesus whom you handed over and disowned in the presence of Pilate after he had decided to release him.

Footnotes

  1. Acts 3:11 The discourse that follows embodies the kerygma (i.e., the essentials of Christian preaching) as intended for a Jewish audience.
  2. Acts 3:13 Servant: the Greek word can also be translated as “son” or “child” (see Acts 3:26; 4:25, 27, 30). However, scholars believe that the word “servant” fits in better with the underlying idea of Jesus as the suffering Servant of the Lord (Isa 52:13—53:12).
