but God raised him on the third day and allowed him to be seen —
In context
38how God anointed Jesus the Nazarene with the Holy Spirit and with power, and how he went about doing good and healing all who were under the power of the devil, because God was with him. 39And we are witnesses of everything he did in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem. They put him to death by hanging him on a tree, 40but God raised him on the third day and allowed him to be seen — 41not by all the people, but by us, the witnesses God had chosen in advance, who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead. 42He commanded us to proclaim to the people and to testify that this is the one appointed by God as judge of the living and the dead.
