People's New Testament

3:16 His name. Not Peter's power, but Christ's name, had done all.

Through faith in his name. Not only the faith of Peter and John, but the faith created in the lame man. In an act of faith he was made strong. Plumptree states:

The faith alike is in the healer and the healed.''

Wesley's Notes

3:16 His name - Himself: his power and love. The faith which is by him - Of which he is the giver, as well as the object.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

16. his name, through faith in his name, hath made this man strong, &c.-With what skill does the apostle use the miracle both to glorify his ascended Lord and bring the guilt of His blood more resistlessly home to his audience!

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

3:12-18 Observe the difference in the manner of working the miracles. Our Lord always spoke as having Almighty power, never hesitated to receive the greatest honour that was given to him on account of his Divine miracles. But the apostles referred all to their Lord, and refused to receive any honour, except as his undeserving instruments. This shows that Jesus was one with the Father, and co-equal with Him; while the apostles knew that they were weak, sinful men, and dependent for every thing on Jesus, whose power effected the cure. Useful men must be very humble. Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but to thy name, give glory. Every crown must be cast at the feet of Christ. The apostle showed the Jews the greatness of their crime, but would not anger or drive them to despair. Assuredly, those who reject, refuse, or deny Christ, do it through ignorance; but this can in no case be an excuse.


Acts 3:6 But Peter said, "I do not possess silver and gold, but what I do have I give to you: In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene-- walk!" (NASB ©1995)
