But God has raised Him to life, having terminated the throes of death, for in fact it was not possible for Him to be held fast by death.

The next day a meeting was held in Jerusalem of their Rulers, Elders, and Scribes,

But none of the others dared to attach themselves to them. Yet the people held them in high honour--

But a Pharisee of the name of Gamaliel, a teacher of the Law, held in honour by all the people, rose from his seat and requested that they should be sent outside the court for a few minutes.

But some grew obstinate in unbelief and spoke evil of the new faith before all the congregation. So Paul left them, and, taking with him those who were disciples, held discussions daily in Tyrannus's lecture-hall.

and when they were shedding the blood of Stephen, Thy witness, I was standing by, fully approving of it, and I held the clothes of those who were killing him.'
