And as concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to curruption, he said on this wise (in this way), I will give you the sure mercies of David. Wherefore he said also in another psalm, 'thou shalt not suffer (permit, allow, tolerate) thy holy one to see corruption" For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption; but he, whom God raised again saw no corruption.  (Acts 13:32-37)   The word "again" to me means that he was raised up once and then God did it again - otherwise it is meaningless and redundant and I don't believe that this is so.  Do you?
