Wherefore, O king Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision; but first to those in Damascus, and Jerusalem, and to all the country of Judaea, and then to the gentiles, I proclaimed that they should repent and turn to God, doing works worthy of repentance.

And Paul looking earnestly upon the council, said: Brethren! I have ordered my life in all good conscience before God to this day. And the highpriest, Ananias, commanded those who stood by him to smite him on the mouth. Then Paul said to him, God will smite thee, thou whited wall! Art thou then sitting to judge me according to the law, and dost thou command me to be smitten contrary to the law? read more.
And they that stood by said, Dost thou revile Gods highpriest? Then said Paul, I knew not, brethren, that he was highpriest; for it is written, "Thou shalt not speak evil of a ruler of thy people." But Paul, perceiving one part to be Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, cried aloud in the council, Brethren! I am a Pharisee, the son of Pharisees; for the hope of the resurrection of the dead I am now tried.

nor can they prove the things of which they now accuse me. But this I acknowledge to thee, that according to the way [of belief] which they call a sect, so do I worship the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the Law and by the Prophets; having a hope in God, which they themselves also entertain, that there will be a resurrection both of the righteous and the unrighteous. On this ground do I also myself strive to have always a conscience void of offence toward God and toward men. And after some years I came to bring alms to my nation, and to make offerings; in doing which they found me purified in the temple, not with a crowd nor with tumult; but certain Jews from Asia [caused it], who ought to be here before thee, and make their charge, if they had aught against me. Or, let these men themselves say what wrongdoing they found in me when I stood before the council, except in relation to this one expression, which I uttered aloud while standing among them: Concerning the resurrection of the dead I am tried before you this day.

And Agrippa said to Paul, Thou art permitted to speak for thyself. Then Paul stretched forth his hand and made his defence: I think myself happy, king Agrippa, that I am to make my defence this day before thee concerning all things of which I am accused by the Jews; especially as thou art acquainted with all the customs and questions among the Jews.

My manner of life, then, from my youth, which was from the beginning among my own nation and at Jerusalem, all Jews know: and they know, if they are willing to testify, that from the first, according to the strictest sect of our religion, I lived a Pharisee. And now I stand on trial for the hope of the promise made by God to the fathers, which our twelve tribes, earnestly serving God day and night, hope to obtain; concerning which hope, O king, I am accused by Jews. Why is it judged incredible with you if God raiseth the dead? I indeed thought with myself that I ought to do many things in opposition to the name of Jesus the Nazarene. Which I also did in Jerusalem; and many of the saints did I myself shut up in prisons, having received authority from the chief priests; and when they were put to death, I gave my voice against them.
