This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Act 3:23. Ἔσται δὲ, moreover it shall come to pass) והיה, a modal [See Append. on ‘Modalis’] formula, exciting attention.-ἥτις ἐὰν, whatsoever) It is implied that many are about to hear this Prophet, and many not about to hear Him.-ἐξολοθρευθήσεται, shall be utterly destroyed, or exterminated) Instead of the Hebrew, “I will require it of him” (Deu 18:19), is put that customary formula concerning כרת, utter cutting off. As death is the wages of sin; so a violent death, that is, utter destruction, is the wages of violent (heinous) sin.
