ylt Acts:22:30-23:11
ylt@Acts:22:30 @and on the morrow, intending to know the certainty wherefore he is accused by the Jews, he did loose him from the bonds, and commanded the chief priests and all their sanhedrim to come, and having brought down Paul, he set [him] before them.
ylt@Acts:23:1 @And Paul having earnestly beheld the sanhedrim, said, 'Men, brethren, I in all good conscience have lived to God unto this day;'
ylt@Acts:23:2 @and the chief priest Ananias commanded those standing by him to smite him on the mouth,
ylt@Acts:23:3 @then Paul said unto him, 'God is about to smite thee, thou whitewashed wall, and thou -- thou dost sit judging me according to the law, and, violating law, dost order me to be smitten!'
ylt@Acts:23:4 @And those who stood by said, 'The chief priest of God dost thou revile?'
ylt@Acts:23:5 @and Paul said, 'I did not know, brethren, that he is chief priest: for it hath been written, Of the ruler of thy people thou shalt not speak evil;'
ylt@Acts:23:6 @and Paul having known that the one part are Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, cried out in the sanhedrim, 'Men, brethren, I am a Pharisee -- son of a Pharisee -- concerning hope and rising again of dead men I am judged.'
ylt@Acts:23:7 @And he having spoken this, there came a dissension of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees, and the crowd was divided,
ylt@Acts:23:8 @for Sadducees, indeed, say there is no rising again, nor messenger, nor spirit, but Pharisees confess both.
ylt@Acts:23:9 @And there came a great cry, and the scribes of the Pharisees' part having arisen, were striving, saying, 'No evil do we find in this man; and if a spirit spake to him, or a messenger, we may not fight against God;'
ylt@Acts:23:10 @and a great dissension having come, the chief captain having been afraid lest Paul may be pulled to pieces by them, commanded the soldiery, having gone down, to take him by force out of the midst of them, and to bring [him] to the castle.
ylt@Acts:23:11 @And on the following night, the Lord having stood by him, said, 'Take courage, Paul, for as thou didst fully testify the things concerning me at Jerusalem, so it behoveth thee also at Rome to testify.'
