rkjnt Acts:22:30-23:11
rkjnt@Acts:22:30 @ On the next day, because he wanted to know exactly why he was accused by the Jews, he loosed him from his bonds, and commanded the chief priests and all the council to appear, and brought Paul down, and set him before them.
rkjnt@Acts:23:1 @ And Paul, earnestly looking at the council, said, Brethren, I have lived in all good conscience before God until this day.
rkjnt@Acts:23:2 @ And the high priest Ananias commanded those who stood by him to strike him on the mouth.
rkjnt@Acts:23:3 @ Then Paul said to him, God shall strike you, you whitewashed wall: do you sit to judge me according to the law, yet contrary to the law command me to be struck?
rkjnt@Acts:23:4 @ And those who stood by said, Do you revile God's high priest?
rkjnt@Acts:23:5 @ Then Paul said, I did not know, brethren, that he was the high priest: for it is written, You shall not speak evil of a ruler of your people.
rkjnt@Acts:23:6 @ But when Paul perceived that one part were Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, Brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee: it is for the hope of the resurrection of the dead that I am on trial.
rkjnt@Acts:23:7 @ And when he had said this, there arose a dissension between the Pharisees and the Sadducees: and the assembly was divided.
rkjnt@Acts:23:8 @ For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, nor angels, or spirits: but the Pharisees acknowledge both.
rkjnt@Acts:23:9 @ And there arose a great cry: and the scribes that were of the Pharisees' party arose, and argued vigorously, saying, We find no evil in this man: what if a spirit or an angel has spoken to him?
rkjnt@Acts:23:10 @ And when there arose a great dissension, the commander, fearing lest Paul should be pulled in pieces by them, commanded the soldiers to go down, and to take him by force from among them, and bring him into the barracks.
rkjnt@Acts:23:11 @ And the next night the Lord stood by him, and said, Take courage: for as you have testified of me in Jerusalem, so you must also bear witness in Rome.
