but God raised him on the third day and made him to appear,
Peter opened his mouth with freedom and weight, as a man who had been locked silent to the uncircumcised until God opened it. He first establishes what must be clear or neither he nor they could preach or hear with comfort: God respects no man's person, but judges by merit alone, and so the Gospel belongs to Gentile and Jew equally.

Commenting on Acts 10:34-43
God the Father raised Him, not Christ raising Himself, though both are true in their distinct natures. He appeared in a glorious body, the same body He suffered in, only transformed, so He could be heard, seen, and handled; this gave full proof He had conquered death and the grave.
