SEV Biblia, Chapter 10:39
Y nosotros somos testigos de todas las cosas que hizo en la tierra de Judea, y en Jerusaln; al cual mataron colgndole en un madero.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Acts 10:39
Verse 39. We are witnesses of all] In this speech St. Peter may refer, not only to the twelve apostles, but to the six brethren whom he had brought with him. Whom they slew] As the truth of the resurrection must depend on the reality of the death of Christ, it was necessary that this should be stated, and shown to rest on the most indubitable evidence.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 34-43 - Acceptance cannot be obtained on any other ground than that of the covenant of mercy, through the atonement of Christ; but wherever tru religion is found, God will accept it without regarding names or sects The fear of God and works of righteousness are the substance of tru religion, the effects of special grace. Though these are not the caus of a man's acceptance, yet they show it; and whatever may be wanting i knowledge or faith, will in due time be given by Him who has begun it They knew in general the word, that is, the gospel, which God sent to the children of Israel. The purport of this word was, that God by it published the good tidings of peace by Jesus Christ. They knew the several matters of fact relating to the gospel. They knew the baptis of repentance which John preached. Let them know that this Jesu Christ, by whom peace is made between God and man, is Lord of all; no only as over all, God blessed for evermore, but as Mediator. All power both in heaven and in earth, is put into his hand, and all judgmen committed to him. God will go with those whom he anoints; he will be with those to whom he has given his Spirit. Peter then declare Christ's resurrection from the dead, and the proofs of it. Faith ha reference to a testimony, and the Christian faith is built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, on the testimony given by them. See what must be believed concerning him. That we are all accountable to Christ as our Judge; so every one must seek his favour and to have him as our Friend. And if we believe in him, we shall all be justified by him as our Righteousness. The remission of sins lays foundation for all other favours and blessings, by taking that out of the way which hinders the bestowing of them. If sin be pardoned, all is well, and shall end well for ever.

Vincent's NT Word Studies
39. They slew. The best texts insert kai, also: "whom also they slew;" also having an incressive force. They added this crowning atrocity to other persecutions.Tree. See on Luke xxiii. 31.
Robertson's NT Word Studies
10:39 {And we are witnesses} (kai hemeis martures). Compare "ye yourselves know" (verse #37). Peter thus appeals to what the audience know and to what the disciples know. He made the same claim about personal witnesses of the Resurrection of Jesus at Pentecost (#2:32). Here Peter affirms full knowledge of the work of Jesus in Judea (for whole country including Galilee and Perea) and Jerusalem (given mainly in John's Gospel). In the Greek h"n (which) is attracted into the genitive case to agree with the antecedent pantwn (all), a common enough idiom. {Whom also they slew} (hon kai aneilan). Second aorist active indicative of anairew with a as often in Acts (#2:23; 5:30). But note kai (also) in the old MSS., not in the Textus Receptus. They "also" slew him, went that far, " this crowning atrocity" (Vincent), kai could here be "even." {Hanging him on a tree} (kremasantes epi xulou). this same expression used by Peter in #5:30 which see for discussion.
