So one came and reported to them, [saying], "Behold, the men whom you put in jail are standing in the temple and teaching the people!"

And in the daytime He was teaching in the temple, but at night He went out and stayed on the mountain called Olivet.

Then early in the morning all the people came to Him in the temple to hear Him.

And early in the morning, He came again into the temple, and all the people came to Him; and having sat down, He began to teach them.

Then the high priest rose up, and all those who were with him (which is the sect of the Sadducees), and they were filled with jealousy,

Now when they heard these words, both the high priest and the captain of the temple, and the chief priests, they were greatly perplexed about them, as to what would come of this.

Now it came to pass, on the next day, that their rulers, elders, and scribes were gathered together at Jerusalem,

And hearing that he was addressing them in the Hebrew language, they granted [him] more silence. And he said:

"I am indeed a Jew, having been born in Tarsus of Cilicia, but having been brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, having been educated according to the exactness of the law of our forefathers, being zealous for God just as you all are today.

For you shall be a witness for Him to all men of what you have seen and heard.

to chastise his rulers at his pleasure, and to teach his elders wisdom.

And they brought them forward and began to inquire, "By what power or by what name have you done this?"

And becoming day, there was no small disturbance among the soldiers, as to what had become of Peter.

And Herod, seeking for him and not finding him, he examined the guards, and commanded that they be executed. And going down from Judea to Caesarea, he was spending time [there].
