Hechos 13:27

27 La gente de Jerusalén y sus líderes no reconocieron a Jesús como la persona de quien hablaron los profetas. En cambio, lo condenaron y, al hacerlo, cumplieron las palabras de los profetas que se leen todos los días de descanso.

Hechos 13:27 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 13:27

For they that dwelt at Jerusalem, and their rulers
The inhabitants of that city, and the great sanhedrim which sat there: because they knew him not; that is, either Jesus the Saviour, whom God had raised of the seed of David, and to whom John bore witness; and which must be understood, not of all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and members of the sanhedrim; for though some were ignorant, yet there were others that knew that Jesus was the Messiah, and notwithstanding rejected him; but the apostle chooses to take no notice of these, because he would not irritate and provoke, but rather of others, that were really ignorant of Christ: or else this may be understood of the Gospel, the word of salvation, that the Jews knew not "that"; and so the Syriac version renders it; and to which agrees the Ethiopic version, which reads thus, "they knew not this word of the prophets", joining the word of salvation, and what follows, together:

nor yet the voices of the prophets:
"or the writings of the prophets", as the Syriac version, and some copies read; their prophecies concerning the Messiah, particularly in ( Psalms 22:1-31 ) ( Isaiah 53:1-12 ) ( Daniel 9:1-27 ) which are read every sabbath day; (See Gill on Acts 13:15)

they have fulfilled them;
the word, of the prophets:

in condemning him;
Jesus Christ, for these prophets testified, in the places referred to, of the sufferings and death of Christ, to which he was condemned by them.

Hechos 13:27 In-Context

25 Cuando estaba en los últimos días de su ministerio, Juan preguntó: “¿Creen ustedes que yo soy el Mesías? No, ¡no lo soy! Pero él pronto viene, y yo ni siquiera soy digno de ser su esclavo ni de desatarle las sandalias de sus pies”.

26 »Hermanos —ustedes, hijos de Abraham, y también ustedes, gentiles temerosos de Dios—, ¡este mensaje de salvación ha sido enviado a nosotros!

27 La gente de Jerusalén y sus líderes no reconocieron a Jesús como la persona de quien hablaron los profetas. En cambio, lo condenaron y, al hacerlo, cumplieron las palabras de los profetas que se leen todos los días de descanso.

28 No encontraron ninguna razón legal para ejecutarlo, pero de cualquier forma le pidieron a Pilato que lo matara.

29 »Una vez que llevaron a cabo todo lo que las profecías decían acerca de él, lo bajaron de la cruz
y lo pusieron en una tumba.
