Acts 10:41

Not to all the people
Of the Jews, who crucified him; nor to the whole body of the Christians, though at one time to a large number, even five hundred brethren at once:

but unto witnesses chosen before of God;
by Christ himself, who is God:

even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he rose from the
dead;
namely, to the apostles, with whom he familiarly conversed by times, for the space of forty days after his resurrection; and Beza's most ancient copy; and the Ethiopic version here add, "forty days"; and particularly he did sometimes eat and drink with them; ( Luke 24:42 Luke 24:43 ) ( John 21:12 John 21:15 ) and though drinking is not mentioned, it is included in eating, as in ( Luke 7:36 ) wherefore there is no need to connect the last clause, "after he rose from the dead", with the latter part of the preceding verse, as some do, on that account.
