That is, Thou hast raised me from the dead.

Wesley: Act 2:28 - Thou wilt fill me with joy by thy countenance

JFB: Act 2:22-28 - a man approved of God

Rather, "authenticated," "proved," or "demonstrated to be from God."

JFB: Act 2:22-28 - by miracles . . . which God did by him

This is not a low view of our Lord's miracles, as has been alleged, nor inconsistent with Joh 2:11, but is in strict accordance with His progress from humiliation to glory, and with His own words in Joh 5:19. This view of Christ is here dwelt on to exhibit to the Jews the whole course of Jesus of Nazareth as the ordinance and doing of the God of Israel [ALFORD].

JFB: Act 2:28 - Thou hast made known to me the ways of life

That is, resurrection-life.

JFB: Act 2:28 - thou shalt make me full of joy with thy countenance

That is, in glory; as is plain from the whole connection and the actual words of the sixteenth Psalm.

Clarke: Act 2:28 - Thou hast made known to me the ways of life

Thou hast made known to me the ways of life - That is, the way from the region of death, or state of the dead and separate spirits; so that I shall resume the same body, and live the same kind of life, as I had before I gave up my life for the sin of the world.

Calvin: Act 2:28 - Thou hast made known

28.Thou hast made known He meaneth, that he was restored from death to life by the grace of God. For in that he was, as it were, a man raised from death to life, he acknowledgeth that it was a great good gift of God. This was in such sort fulfilled in Christ, that there wanted nothing unto perfection. As for the members they have their measure. Therefore Christ was far from corruption, that he may be the first-fruits of those which rise from death, (1Co 15:23.) We shall follow him in our order at length, but being first turned into dust, (1Co 15:42.) That which followeth, that he was filled with gladness, with the countenance of God, agreeth with that: Show us thy face, and we shall be safe. And, again, The light of thy countenance is showed upon us: thou hast put gladness in my heart. For it is only the pleasantness of God’s countenance, which doth not only make us glad, but also quickens us; again, when the same is turned away, or troubled, we must needs faint.

Poole: Act 2:28 - Thou hast made known to me // The ways of life // With thy countenance

Thou hast made known to me God is frequently said to make those mercies known to us which he bestows upon us.

The ways of life of a true life, which is life indeed. David in these words celebrates God’ s delivering of him from his grievous afflictions and exile; in which he was looked upon by others, and by himself, as a dead man, yet was brought again to see the temple, and enjoy the ordinances of God, without which his life was as no life unto him. So our Saviour, after his death and passion, arose, and ascended into heaven, and lives for ever to make intercession for us.

With thy countenance that is, with thy presence, or manifestation of thy love and favour.

Gill: Act 2:28 - Thou hast made known to me the ways of life // Thou shalt make me full of joy with thy countenance

Thou hast made known to me the ways of life,.... That is, thou hast raised me from the dead. When God raised Christ from the dead, he showed him, or made him to know experimentally the way of life, or the way of the resurrection from death to life; and this path of life, or of the resurrection to an immortal and eternal life, was first shown to Christ, who is the first fruits of them that slept, and the first begotten from the dead,

Thou shalt make me full of joy with thy countenance; or glorious presence, in which is fulness of joy; which Christ, as man, is in, and fully possessed of, being exalted at the right hand of God, and crowned with glory and honour, and has all the joy that was set before him in his sufferings and death.
