But he whom God raised again, etc.] The Vulgate Latin version adds, “from the dead”; meaning the Lord Jesus Christ, who was raised from the dead by God the Father: and saw no corruption; he did not lie so long in the grave as to corrupt and putrefy, but was raised from the dead the third day; wherefore the passage, before cited, is very applicable to him, and is a clear proof that the Messiah was to rise from the dead, as Jesus did.
