ACTS 10:41 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Not to all the people, but unto witnesses chosen before of God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he rose from the dead.”
'He was not seen by all the people, but by witnesses whom God had already chosen—by us who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead.'—Peter establishes the criterion of apostolic witness: eating and drinking with the risen Jesus (physical, embodied communion that confirms his bodily resurrection). The chosen witnesses are the apostles; their commissioning precedes the public proclamation. The intimacy of table-fellowship authenticates resurrection reality.
