Commentary on Acts 26:8

Theological / Devotional

A thing incredible. To Paul, a Pharisee and a Christian, belief in the resurrection of the dead generally, and of Jesus in particular, was inevitable. Without the hope of the resurrection the whole fabric of Jewish faith (see Acts 24:15) — to say nothing of that of Christianity (see 1 Cor. 15:12-22) — ravels out. Without the hope of a resurrection, faith in God loses its meaning (see on Matt. 22:32; 1 Cor. 15:14, 17, 19).

You. The pronoun is plural, thus including the entire audience.
