1 As they were speaking to the people, the priests and the captain of the temple guard and the Sadducees came up to them, 2 being greatly disturbed because they were teaching the people and proclaimingain Jesus the resurrection from the dead. 3 And they laid hands on them and put them in jail until the next day, for it was already evening. 4 But many of those who had heard thebmessage believed; and the number of the men came to be about five thousand. | |
5 On the next day, their rulers and elders and scribes were gathered together in Jerusalem; 6 and Annas the high priest was there, and Caiaphas and John and Alexander, and all who were of high-priestly descent. 7 When they had placed them in the center, they began to inquire, “By what power, or in what name, have you done this?” 8 Then Peter,cfilled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, “dRulers and elders of the people, 9 if we areeon trial today for a benefit done to a sick man,fas to how this man has been made well, 10 let it be known to all of you and to all the people of Israel, thatgby the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead—hbyithis name this man stands here before you in good health. 11 jHe is the STONE WHICH WAS REJECTED by you, THE BUILDERS, but WHICH BECAME THE CHIEF CORNER stone. 12 And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved.” |
