This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Act 4:28. Ποιῆσαι, to do) They could not do more, though they wished it. Construe this with, were gathered together, not with, Thou hast anointed: for the subject of the verb to do are the enemies gathered together, concerning whom the prediction had been given. Comp. ch. Act 2:23, “Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God:” Act 3:18.-ὅσα, whatsoever things) not fewer things, but not more.-ἡ χείρ σου καὶ ἡ βουλή σου, Thy hand and Thy counsel) The order of the words is worthy of observation. The hand of God is felt sooner than His counsel. His power and His wisdom are meant.-προώρισε) determined before.
