Car les habitants de Jérusalem et leurs magistrats, ayant méconnu ce Jésus, ont aussi, en le jugeant, accompli les paroles des prophètes, qui se lisent chaque jour de sabbat.
Que signifie ce verset ?
This verse from Acts tells us that the people of Jerusalem and their leaders didn't understand Jesus or what the prophets had said about him in the scriptures, so they ended up condemning him without realizing it was part of God's plan.
