Acts17:20
Certain strange things. Literally, something pertaining to a foreign country or people. Here it means something unusual, remarkable, to which we are not accustomed to hear from their philosophers and religious teachers.
What these things mean. We would understand more clearly what is affirmed respecting Jesus and the resurrection.
