<p>5:20 <i>You go and stand and speak in the temple to the people</i>- A reiteration of the great preaching commission.</p><p><em>All the words of this life</em>- It was Peter who had earlier used this phrase in confessing that the Lord Jesus had the words of eternal life (Jn. 6:68). Now Peter is being told to go and speak them forth, at whatever risk to himself, if he really believes what he has said about the words of life. This connection with Peter's statement in Jn. 6:68 would explain the otherwise odd phrase &quot;<em>this </em>life&quot;. It's as if the Lord is reading Peter's mind and saying: 'Yes, you said that My words are the words of eternal life- so go and preach the words of this life'. And of course it was the Sadducees who denied eternal life and resurrection. Another approach is to understand &quot;this life&quot; as referring to this present mortal life; the only other usage of the phrase is in 1 Cor. 15:19 &quot;If in this life only...&quot;. In this case, the Angel was asking them to go and tell people the meaning of this life.</p>
