Summary
So that the name of Jesus, every need should bend in heaven and on earth, every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God, the Father, the name that's above every name. Here comes the reaction, much annoyed, because they were teaching the people and proclaiming that in Jesus through his name, there is the resurrection of the dead. Then, Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, rulers of the people and elders, if we are questioned today, because if a good deed done to someone who sick and harassed how this man has been healed, let it be known to all of you and to all the people of Israel, that this man is standing before you in good health, by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead. And when that officiant shut the book, it was an attempt to avoid the scandal of the name of Jesus, because if he would have read the very next verse, it underscores the truth of that section of Scripture. It underscores the truth that there is salvation only in the name of Jesus Christ, that no one comes to the Father except through Jesus. If you look down into verse 29 where it says, and now Lord, look at their threats and grant to your servants, etc., the word there for Lord is a different word than what you have in verse 24.
