This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Act 3:20. Ἀποστέιλη, that He may send) “Sent,” in Act 3:26 : and yet the expression here, is not “send back,” or “again,” but simply “send:” comp. Act 1:1, note.-προκεχειρισμένον) Hardly anywhere is the reading προκεκηρυγμένον to be found. Peter does not here preach beforehand Christ, but declares that He is already “prepared.” The same verb occurs, ch. Act 22:14, Act 26:16; Exo 4:13; Jos 3:12. Comp. Luk 2:31. He is prepared, that He may be received by us, (and) that He may be sent by God. Hesychius, προκεχειρισμένον, προβεβλημένον, ἡτοιμασμένον; for so we ought to read, for ἠτιμασμένον.
