Matthew Poole and continuators on Acts 13:27

27 For they that dwell at Jerusalem , and their rulers , because they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath[illegible: 1 letter]day, they have fulfilled them in condemning him.

The common people had their

great Council; both had a hand in our Saviours death.

But if so great a fault was capable of any alteration, the Apostle gladly mentions it, that it was done out of ignorance; they knew neither Christ the word, nor the word (of the Gospel) concerning Christ, tho that they may be made sensible, that this their ignorance was not invincible▪

He minds them that it was their sin, having had means whereby they might have come unto the knowledge of Christ.
