Not to all the people, but unto witnesses chosen before of God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he rose from the dead.
All Commentaries on Acts 10:41 Go To Acts 10
John Chrysostom
AD 407
See whence he fetches his assurance of the resurrection. What is the reason that being risen he did no sign, but only ate and drank? Because the Resurrection itself was a great sign, and of this nothing was so much a sign as the eating and drinking. To testify, says he— in a manner calculated to alarm— that they may not have it in their power to fall back upon the excuse of ignorance: and he does not say, that He is the Son of God, but, what would most alarm them, that it is He which is ordained of God, to be the Judge of quick and dead.
