Commentary on Acts 5:30
Peter's climactic declaration - 'The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew and hanged on a tree' - contrasts divine action ('God... raised') with human crime ('ye slew and hanged'). The Greek 'diacheirisamenoi' (slew) emphasizes violent death by human hands. 'Hanged on a tree' evokes Deuteronomy 21:23's curse, which Christ bore for our redemption (Galatians 3:13). This bold accusation demonstrates apostolic fearlessness - confronting murderers with their guilt while offering salvation. The resurrection vindicated Jesus and condemned His killers.
