'Argument' in the Bible

And when Peter came to Jerusalem, those who kept the rule of circumcision had an argument with him,

But after Paul and Barnabas had engaged them in serious argument and debate, the church arranged for Paul and Barnabas and some others of them to go up to the apostles and elders in Jerusalem concerning this controversy.

And there was a sharp argument between them, so that they were parted from one another, and Barnabas took Mark with him and went by ship to Cyprus;

for he powerfully and in public overcame the Jews in argument, proving to them from the Scriptures that Jesus is the Christ.

When he said this, an argument began between the Pharisees and the Sadducees, and the assembly was divided.

When the argument became so great the commanding officer feared that they would tear Paul to pieces, he ordered the detachment to go down, take him away from them by force, and bring him into the barracks.

And they have not seen me in argument with any man in the Temple, or working up the feelings of the people, in the Synagogues or in the town:

Nor can they present evidence to you to prove what they now bring against me.
