And he commanded us to preach unto the people, and to testify that it is he who was ordained of God to be the Judge of the living and dead.
All Commentaries on Acts 10:42 Go To Acts 10
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
The living and of the dead. This may be understood of the elect, who live by grace, and the reprobate, who are spiritually dead; or perhaps more literally, of those who shall be found living upon earth at the second coming of Christ, and of all who have died from the commencement of the world to the end of time. (St. Augustine, Enchirid.)
