David's Descendants Fulfilment Man's Offspring One's Posterity Promise Promised Raise Raised Salvation Savior Saviour Seed
13:23 {9} Of this man's seed hath God according to [his] promise raised unto Israel a Saviour, Jesus:
(9) He proves by the witness of John that Jesus is the Saviour who would come from David.
13:23 Of this man's seed... according to [his] promise. For the promise of a Savior of David's seed, see 2Sa 7:12 Isa 11:1 Zec 3:8 6:12.
13:14-31 When we come together to worship God, we must do it, not only by prayer and praise, but by the reading and hearing of the word of God. The bare reading of the Scriptures in public assemblies is not enough; they should be expounded, and the people exhorted out of them. This is helping people in doing that which is necessary to make the word profitable, to apply it to themselves. Every thing is touched upon in this sermon, which might best prevail with Jews to receive and embrace Christ as the promised Messiah. And every view, however short or faint, of the Lord's dealings with his church, reminds us of his mercy and long-suffering, and of man's ingratitude and perverseness. Paul passes from David to the Son of David, and shows that this Jesus is his promised Seed; a Saviour to do that for them, which the judges of old could not do, to save them from their sins, their worst enemies. When the apostles preached Christ as the Saviour, they were so far from concealing his death, that they always preached Christ crucified. Our complete separation from sin, is represented by our being buried with Christ. But he rose again from the dead, and saw no corruption: this was the great truth to be preached.
