Context Readings

Persecution Of Disciples Predicted

19 But when they turn you over [to them], do not worry about how to speak or what you should say. For you will be told [i.e., by God] what to say at the right time. 20 For it will not be you who speaks, but [rather] the Holy Spirit of your Father will be speaking in you. 21 [At that time] a person will turn his brother over to be killed, and the father [will do the same to] his child. And children will rebel against their parents and turn them over to be killed.
