Why should it be thought a thing incredible with you, that God should raise the dead?
All Commentaries on Acts 26:8 Go To Acts 26
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
He speaks now to the Sadducees, who denied the resurrection. Can you say it is impossible for Him, whom you all allow to be omnipotent, to raise any of the dead to life? Is it not easier to reanimate a body, whose parts are dissolved by death, than create what had no existence? "And why should He, who daily form the corrupted seed brings forth plants, leaves, wood, not be able to call back into their primitive state the flesh and bones from the dust into which they have been dissolved. "(St. Gregory, hom. xxvi. in Evang.)
