Men of Israeld, hear these words: Jesus the Nazaraean, a man borne witness toe by God to you by works of power and wonders and signs, which God wrought by him in your midst, as yourselves know

JND Translation Notes

+
d
Lit. "Men, Israelites," as elsewhere, cf. ch. 1.16.
e
"Borne witness to, to you," is not agreeable English; but "approved," in the modern use at any rate, is not the sense, and "among you" is feeble. The manifestation or demonstration was to the Jews. The witness was borne to them objectively, to Jesus as its subject.
