“Acts 2:23 This man was handed over to you by God’s set purpose and foreknowledge; and you, with the help of wicked men, put him to death by nailing him to the cross.”
That is a false translation. There is no mention of the act of nailing or mention of a cross in the Greek texts.
Act 2:23 “Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain” (KJV)
Look at Luke 23:33 “And when they were come to the place, which is called Calvary, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand, and the other on the left.” So, if Jesus was nailed as you claim, certainly, the two malefactors were nailed also-they were all crucified right?
Now look at Luke 23:39 “And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us.” Now we read that the malefactors were hanged. Clearly this does not mean hanged by the neck, or they could not speak. The word means suspended. There is no mention of a cross or nails in any of these passages. Why do you find you need to add to the Bible things that are not there?
“That is a false translation.” - That is the NIV translation; not a perfect translation but not at all “false”. I’m assuming you believe that the Bible (original texts), in any language, is “false” so why do you care which translation is used?
“There is no mention of the act of nailing or mention of a cross in the Greek texts.” - Incorrect. Nailing or nails (Strong’s 4338 & 2247) : Col. 2:14, Jn 20:25. Cross (Strong’s 4716) : Mt 10:38, 16:24,...etc
“Act 2:23 “Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain” (KJV)” - I prefer the King James Version or the New King James Version as well..
“So, if Jesus was nailed as you claim, certainly, the two malefactors were nailed also-they were all crucified right?” - Yes, they were all crucified. However, the manner in which Christ was crucified left nail prints in his hands...
