“Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.”
'God exalted him to his right hand as Prince and Savior that he might bring repentance and forgiveness of sins to Israel' - the 'right hand' (dexia) is the place of divine power and honor (Psalm 110:1). 'Prince and Savior' (archēgos kai sōtēr) are titles of royal and redemptive authority. The purpose of exaltation is missional: 'that he might bring repentance and forgiveness' (didōnai metanoian kai aphesin hamartōn), making the risen Jesus the active agent of Israel's restoration.
