Acts 17:32 (KJV)
Commentary on Acts 17:32
The mixed response to resurrection - some mocked, others wanted to hear more, some believed - represents typical responses to the gospel. Resurrection remains the dividing line between acceptance and rejection of Christianity. The 'mocking' reveals how central Christian claims appear foolish to worldly wisdom (1 Corinthians 1:18), yet this 'foolishness' saves those who believe.
