Contextual Overview

¹⁰ The Paul, after that the deputie hym selfe had beckened vnto hym that he shoulde speake, aunswered: With a more quiet mynde do I aunswere for my selfe, forasmuch as I vnderstande, that thou haste ben of many yeres a iudge vnto this nation: ¹¹ Because that thou mayest knowe, that there are yet but twelue dayes, sence I went vp to Hierusalem for to worshyp. ¹² And they neither founde me in the temple disputyng with any man, either raysyng vp the people, neither in the synagogues, nor in the citie. ¹³ Neither can they proue the thynges wherof they accuse me. ¹⁴ But this I confesse vnto thee, that after the way which they call heresie, so worship I the God of my fathers, beleuyng all thynges which are written in the lawe and the prophetes, ¹⁵ And haue hope towardes God, that the resurrection of the dead which they them selues loke for also, shalbe both of the iust and vniust. ¹⁶ And herein studie I, to haue alway a cleare conscience toward God, and toward men. ¹⁷ Nowe after many yeres, I came and brought almes to my nation, and offerynges: ¹⁸ In the which they founde me purified in the temple, neither with multitude, nor yet with vnquietnesse: Howbeit, there were certayne Iewes out of Asia, ¹⁹ Which ought to be here present before thee, & accuse me, yf they had ought agaynst me:

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Except it be for this one voice,.... Sentence or expression following, which declares his faith about the resurrection; not that he thought or owned that this was an evil in him, but that it was the only one, that any of them, the Jews, a part among them, namely, the Sadducees, could condemn, or judge to be evil in him:

that I cried, standing among them; whereby they were thrown into confusion and division among themselves: and it was this,

touching the resurrection of the dead I am called in question by you this day; see Acts 23:6.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Except it be for this one voice - For this one expression or declaration. This was what Paul had said before the council - the main thing on which he had insisted, and he calls on them to testify to this, and to show, if they could, that in this declaration he had been wrong. Chubb and other infidels have supposed that Paul here acknowledges that he was wrong in the declaration which he made when he said that he was called in question for the doctrine of the resurrection of the dead Acts 23:6, and that his conscience reproached him for appearing to be time-serving, for concealing the true cause of offence against him, and for attempting to take advantage of their divisions of sentiment, thus endeavoring to produce discord in the council. But against this supposition we may urge the following considerations:

(1) Paul wished to fix their attention on the main thing which he had said before the council.

(2) It was true, as has been shown on the passage (Acts 23:1-10), that this was the principal doctrine which Paul had been defending.

(3) If they were prepared to witness against him for holding and teaching the resurrection of the dead as a false or evil doctrine, he called on them to do it. As this had been the only thing which they had witnessed before the council, he calls on them to testify to what they knew only, and to show, if they could, that this was wrong.

Touching the resurrection ... - Respecting the resurrection, Acts 23:6.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Acts 24:21. Except it be for this one voice — The Sadducees who belong to that council, and who deny the resurrection of the dead, may indeed blame me for professing my faith in this doctrine; but as this is a doctrine credited by the nation in general, and as there can be nothing criminal in such a belief, and there can bring no accusation against me relative to any thing else, this, of course, is the sum of all the charges to which I am called to answer before you this day.
