Acts - 17:32 Meaning
“And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked: and others said, We will hear thee again of this matter.”
King James Version (KJV)
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
17:32-34 The apostle was treated with more outward civility at Athens than in some other places; but none more despised his doctrine, or treated it with more indifference. Of all subjects, that which deserves the most attention gains the least. But those who scorn, will have to bear the consequences, and the word will never be useless. Some will be found, who cleave to the Lord, and listen to his faithful servants. Considering the judgement to come, and Christ as our Judge, should urge all to repent of sin, and turn to Him. Whatever matter is used, all discourses must lead to Him, and show his authority; our salvation, and resurrection, come from and by Him.
“And he that burneth her shall wash his clothes in water, and bathe his flesh in water, and shall be unclean until the even.”
