And killed the Prince of life, whom God has raised from the dead; of which we are witnesses.
All Commentaries on Acts 3:15 Go To Acts 3
John Chrysostom
AD 407
The Author of Life:
It follows that the Life He had was not from another. The prince (or author) of evil would be he that first brought forth evil; the prince or author of murder, he who first originated murder; so also the Prince (or Author) of Life must be He Who has Life from Himself.
Whom God has raised from the dead:
In these words he establishes the doctrine of the Resurrection.
to whom we are witnesses:
Before, when he affirmed that He was risen, he adduced the testimony of David; now, having said it, he alleges the College of Apostles. Whereof we are witnesses, he says.
