Acts 13:26-28

Expanded Bible

²⁶ “·Brothers, [^LMen, brothers] ·sons [or descendants] of the family of Abraham, and others who ·worship [fear; 13:16] God, listen! The ·news [word; message] about this salvation has been sent to us. ²⁷ Those who live in Jerusalem and their leaders ·did not realize that Jesus was the Savior [^Lwere ignorant of this; or did not recognize him]. They did not understand the ·words that the prophets wrote [^Lvoices of the prophets], which are read every Sabbath day. But they ·made them come true [^Lfulfilled them] when they ·said Jesus was guilty [^Lcondemned him]. ²⁸ They could not find any real ·reason [cause; basis] for Jesus to be put to death, but they asked Pilate to have him ·killed [executed].
