The resurrection of Jesus, which is the pivotal theme of the New Testament and the central element of the preaching of the early Church, is also the main subject matter of Peter’s Speech at Pentecost (Acts 2:14–41), the first public proclamation of the gospel, at which time the activity of the Church begins as well. The crucial importance of the resurrection of Jesus in this speech is evident both in the speech’s structure and content. The compositional organization of the speech, which originates from the author of Acts, emphasizes a threefold dimension: to expound the event of Pentecost (2:14–21), to announce the resurrection of Jesus (2:22–36) and to challenge those listening to change their minds and receive baptism. In terms of content, the centre of the speech is the message about the event of the resurrection and exaltation of Jesus (2:22–36), which explains what happened at Pentecost and which carries consequences with it (2:37–41). The resurrected Jesus, who is found in the centre of Peter’s speech (2:22–36), is also the pivotal and ultimate object of this message of salvation (2:41).Peter’s speech about the “resurrected Jesus” not only communicates which gift God offers to humanity, but also furnishes information about the value of work and the greatness of the one through whom it is possible to obtain this gift. This refers to the gift of the Holy Spirit, i.e. participation in the life of God through the resurrected Jesus “Saviour” (4:12), whom God has made Lord and Messiah (2:36). This gift of salvation comes to that person who makes a decision for faith in this Saviour (2:21), who turns to him through the reform of his life (2:38) and lets him or herself be saved (2:40).
