SEV Biblia, Chapter 5:30
El Dios de nuestros padres levant a Jess, al cual vosotros matasteis colgndole en el madero.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Acts 5:30
Verse 30. The God of our fathers raised up Jesus] It was well to introduce this, that the council might at once see that they preached no strange God; and that he who so highly honoured the patriarchs, Moses, and the prophets, had yet more highly honoured Jesus Christ in raising him from the dead and seating him at his right hand, and proclaiming him as the only giver of salvation and the repentance which leads to it. Whom ye slew] They charge them again with the murder of Christ, as they had done before, chap. iv. 10-12, where see the notes.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 30. The God of our fathers raised up Jesus , etc.] Not from the dead, though this was true; but called him to the work and office of a Saviour, inverted him with that office, and sent him to perform that work; so that this refers rather to the incarnation of Christ, in consequence of the ancient council and covenant of grace: and this the apostles attribute to God the Father, under the character of the God of our fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, as in ( Acts 3:13), to show that they did not bring in and worship any strange God; nor introduce any novel doctrine; or speak of any other Saviour or Redeemer, than he whom the God of their fathers had appointed, and who was made known to them, whom they looked for and believed in, and were justified and saved by: whom ye slew and hanged on a tree ; this is said in defence of themselves, being charged that they intended to bring this mans blood upon them; they therefore insist upon it that they had slain Jesus whom God raised up, inasmuch as they had condemned him to death in their sanhedrim, and had urged and importuned Pilate to crucify him, and had imprecated his blood upon them and on their children; and were not content to put him to any kind of death, but insisted on his being crucified, or hanged on a tree; that is, stretched out upon the cross, which was both a painful and shameful death, to which they were manifestly accessary, and therefore justly charged with it.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 26-33 - Many will do an evil thing with daring, yet cannot bear to hear of i afterward, or to have it charged upon them. We cannot expect to be redeemed and healed by Christ, unless we give up ourselves to be rule by him. Faith takes the Saviour in all his offices, who came, not to save us in our sins, but to save us from our sins. Had Christ bee exalted to give dominion to Israel, the chief priests would have welcomed him. But repentance and remission of sins are blessings the neither valued nor saw their need of; therefore they, by no means admitted his doctrine. Wherever repentance is wrought, remission i granted without fail. None are freed from the guilt and punishment of sin, but those who are freed from the power and dominion of sin; wh are turned from it, and turned against it. Christ gives repentance, by his Spirit working with the word, to awaken the conscience, to wor sorrow for sin, and an effectual change in the heart and life. The giving of the Holy Ghost, is plain evidence that it is the will of God that Christ should be obeyed. And He will surely destroy those who wil not have Him to reign over them.

Robertson's NT Word Studies
5:30 {Ye slew} (dieceirisasqe). First aorist middle indicative of diaceirizomai, old verb from dia and ceir (hand), to take in hand, manage, to lay hands on, manhandle, kill. In the N.T. only here and #Ac 26:21. {Hanging him upon a tree} (kremasantes epi xulou). First aorist active participle of kremannumi (kremannuw seen already in #Mt 18:6 and #Lu 23:39). Peter refers to #De 21:23 as Paul does in #Ga 3:13, the curse pronounced on every one who "hangs upon a tree."
