Acts 2:29 highlights David's death and tomb, contrasting with the risen Christ in Acts 2:25—showing David's psalm must refer to Jesus.

Acts 2:30 explains David spoke as a prophet about Christ's eternal throne, clarifying how the quote in Acts 2:25 points forward to Jesus.

Acts 13:37 uses the same logic: Jesus did not see decay, proving David's prophecy in Acts 2:25 was about the resurrected Christ.

Psalm 16:8-11 is the exact source Peter quotes here—David's confidence in the Lord's constant presence and resurrection hope.

In John 16:32, Jesus says 'I am not alone, for the Father is with me'—a direct parallel to David's/Christ's confidence in the Lord's constant presence.

2 Samuel 23:2 affirms that David spoke by the Spirit — the same prophetic context Peter uses to introduce David's psalm about Christ.

John 20:9 reveals the disciples had not understood the Scripture about the resurrection — the very prophecy David speaks in Acts 2:25.

1 Corinthians 15:4 declares Christ rose 'according to the Scriptures' — Acts 2:25 then quotes one of those Scriptures (Psalm 16:8).

Psalm 21:7 says the king trusts in the Lord and 'shall not be moved'—a parallel to the unshaken confidence in Acts 2:25.

Hebrews 12:2 fixes eyes on Jesus at God's right hand — mirroring David's 'Lord at my right hand' but applied to Christ's endurance.

Psalm 30:6 says 'I shall never be moved' but from false security—contrasting with genuine confidence rooted in God's presence here.

Psalm 62:6 declares 'I shall not be moved' because of God as rock—parallel to the 'not shaken' trust from the Lord at the right hand.

Psalm 62:6 shares the same confidence expression 'I shall not be shaken' — a parallel theme of trusting God's security.
