Acts 7:52

7:52 Which of the prophets did your ancestors157 not persecute?158 They159 killed those who foretold long ago the coming of the Righteous One,160 whose betrayers and murderers you have now become!161

157	tn Or “forefathers”; Grk “fathers.”
158	sn Which … persecute. The rhetorical question suggests they persecuted them all.
159	tn Grk “And they.” Because of the difference between Greek style, which often begins sentences or clauses with “and,” and English style, which generally does not, καί (kai) has not been translated here.
160	sn The Righteous One is a reference to Jesus Christ.
161	sn Whose betrayers and murderers you have now become. The harsh critique has OT precedent (1 Kgs 19:10–14; Neh 9:26; 2 Chr 36:16).
