ISB ~ Acts 13 v16 - 41

Paul’s inaugural sermon skims the highlights of biblical history from the Exodus to the coming of Jesus. He stresses that Christ fulfills the Davidic covenant by rising from the dead to an everlasting kingship (13:33-37) and supersedes the Mosaic covenant by offering the gift of divine forgiveness (13:38-39). The sermon ends with a warning that scoffers who reject this message are doomed to perish (13:41).
