Scripture focus

And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation.

Acts 2:40 — KJV

Theological / Devotional

Many other words. Now Luke summarizes the remainder of Peter’s address, quoting only his final appeal (cf. on John 21:25).

Did ... testify and exhort. Rather, “protested solemnly and kept on exhorting.”

Save yourselves. Literally, “be ye saved.” Men cannot save themselves; they can only accept or reject God’s provisions for salvation.

Untoward. Rather, “crooked,” as in Luke 3:5; Phil. 2:15. Compare on Deut. 32:5.
