Acts 2:22

Read in context

Acts 2:20–24 · Berean Standard Bible

20 The sun will be turned to darkness, and the moon to blood, before the coming of the great and glorious Day of the Lord.

21 And everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.’

22 Men of Israel, listen to this message: Jesus of Nazareth was a man certified by God to you by miracles, wonders, and signs, which God did among you through Him, as you yourselves know.

23 He was delivered up by God’s set plan and foreknowledge, and you, by the hands of the lawless, put Him to death by nailing Him to the cross.

24 But God raised Him from the dead, releasing Him from the agony of death, because it was impossible for Him to be held in its clutches.
