For do you sit to judge me according to the law, and command me to be struck contrary to the law? 4 And those who stood by said, Do you revile God's high priest? 5 Then said Paul, I was not aware, brethren, that he was the high priest: for it is written, You shall not speak evil of the ruler of your people. 6 But when Paul perceived that one part were Sadducees and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, Men and brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee: concerning the hope and resurrection of the dead I am being questioned. 7 And when he had said this, a dissension arose between the Pharisees and the Sadducees, and the assembly was divided. 8 For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, neither angel, nor spirit; but the Pharisees acknowledge both. 9 And there arose a great outcry, and the scribes who were of the Pharisees' group arose and contended, saying, We find no evil in this man: but if a spirit or an angel has spoken to him, let us not fight against God. 10 And when there arose a great dissension, the chief captain, fearing that Paul might be torn to pieces by them, commanded the soldiers to go down and take him by force from among them, and bring him into the barracks. 11 The following night the Lord stood by him and said, Be of good cheer, Paul: for as you have testified about me in Jerusalem, so must you also bear witness in Rome. 12 And when it was day, certain of the Jews banded together, and bound themselves under an oath, saying that they would neither eat nor drink till they had killed Paul. 13 And there were more than forty who formed this conspiracy. 14 They came to the chief priests and elders and said, We have bound ourselves under a great oath that we will eat nothing until we have killed Paul. 15 Now therefore, you with the council suggest to the chief captain that he bring him down to you tomorrow, as though you would inquire something more accurately about him; and we, before he comes near, are ready to kill him. 16 And when Paul's sister's son heard of their ambush, he went and entered the barracks and told Paul. 17 Then Paul called one of the centurions to him and said, Take this young man to the chief captain, for he has something to tell him. 18 So he took him and brought him to the chief captain and said, Paul the prisoner called me to him and asked me to bring this young man to you, as he has something to tell you. 19 Then the chief captain took him by the hand, and went aside privately and asked him, What is it you have to tell me? 20 And he said, The Jews have agreed to ask you to bring down Paul tomorrow to the council, as though they would inquire somewhat more accurately about him. 21 But do not yield to them, for more than forty of them are lying in wait for him, who have bound themselves with an oath that they will neither eat nor drink till they have killed him. And now they are ready, waiting for a promise from you. 22 So the chief captain let the young man depart and charged him, Tell no one that you have revealed these things to me.

For indeed a notable miracle has been done by them is evident to all who dwell in Jerusalem, and we cannot deny it. 17 But so that it spreads no further among the people, let us severely threaten them, that from now on they speak to no man in this name. 18 And they called them and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus. 19 But Peter and John answered and said to them, Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you more than to God, you judge. 20 For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard. 21 So when they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding no way to punish them, because of the people, since all glorified God for what had been done. 22 For the man was over forty years old on whom this miracle of healing had been performed.
  • Acts 5:26-42 : 26 Then the captain went with the officers and brought them without violence, for they feared the people, lest they should be stoned. 27 And when they had brought them, they set them before the council, and the high priest asked them, 28 Saying, Did we not strictly command you that you should not teach in this name? And look, you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching, and intend to bring this man's blood upon us. 29 Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men. 30 The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom you killed by hanging on a tree. 31 Him God has exalted with His right hand to be a Prince and a Savior, to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins. 32 And we are His witnesses of these things, and so is also the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey Him. 33 When they heard that, they were furious and took counsel to kill them. 34 Then one in the council stood up, a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a doctor of the law, respected among all the people, and commanded to put the apostles outside for a little while, 35 And said to them, Men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what you intend to do as touching these men. 36 For before these days, Theudas rose up, boasting himself to be somebody; to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves: he was slain; and all who obeyed him were scattered and brought to nothing. 37 After this man, Judas of Galilee rose up in the days of the census and drew away many people after him: he also perished, and all who obeyed him were dispersed. 38 And now I say to you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone: for if this counsel or this work is of men, it will come to nothing. 39 But if it is of God, you cannot overthrow it; lest perhaps you be found even to fight against God. 40 And they agreed with him: and when they had called the apostles, and beaten them, they commanded them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go. 41 And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for His name. 42 And daily in the temple, and in every house, they did not cease to teach and preach Jesus Christ.
