“If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he is made whole;”
Acts 4:9 (KJV)
Commentary on Acts 4:9
Peter's rephrasing of their question - 'If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the impotent man' - exposes the absurdity of prosecuting charitable healing. The Greek 'anakrinometha' (examined) is forensic terminology for formal investigation. Calling healing a 'good deed' (Greek 'euergesia,' benefaction) highlights the council's moral bankruptcy: they oppose manifest good. 'By what means he is made whole' shifts from their question about authority to focus on salvation's means.
