Act 3:15 | NET2full | STEP | You killed the Originator of life , whom God raised from the dead . To this fact we are witnesses !

‏ Acts 3:15

15 You killed ^{▼▼tn Or “You put to death.”} the Originator ^{▼▼tn Or “Founder,” “founding Leader.”} of life, whom God raised ^{▼▼sn Whom God raised. God is the main actor here, as he testifies to Jesus and vindicates him.} from the dead. To this fact we are witnesses! ^{▼▼tn Grk “whom God raised from the dead, of which we are witnesses.” The two consecutive relative clauses make for awkward English style, so the second was begun as a new sentence with the words “to this fact” supplied in place of the Greek relative pronoun to make a complete sentence in English.} ^{▼▼sn We are witnesses. Note the two witnesses here, Peter and John (Acts 5:32; Heb 2:3-4).}
