(23) By the determinate counsel and fore knowledge of God.--The adjective meets us again in St. Peter's speech in Acts 10:42; the word for "foreknowledge in his Epistle (1Peter 1:2), and there only in the New Testament.

But it may with equal propriety be applied to the action of the chief priests and elders in delivering Jesus to Pontius Pilate (Matthew 27:2)to be crucified (Matthew 27:26).
