Vs23+: After getting their first taste of rejection by the leaders of Judaism, the apostles went to prayer. After referring to the Creator of everything, they go to Ps 2 again, where they see the enthroned Christ who was also that powerful Creator, to ask him to help them deal with the threats of all their opposition. They were against the Lord and His Messiah, and the psalm is a warning to all leaders of earth to honor the Son, lest he be angry and strike them.
This enthronement was first proclaimed in 2:30, 31 and in 36, not merely by Peter saying so, but by the event of the resurrection, as Rom 1:4 would explain later, in total harmony with the apostles. He was victorious in his endeavor and all mankind will bow before him, Acts 17:31. 'He has given proof of this judgement through Christ, by raising Christ from the dead.'
There was a shaking and they continued on in the work of the mission.
