and when they had left they talked with each other and said,“ This man is doing nothing that deserves death or chains.”

But if these are questions about words, names, and your own law, see to it yourselves. I don’t want to be a judge of such things.”

Now I realized that he had not done anything deserving of death, but when he himself appealed to the Emperor, I decided to send him.

After they examined me, they wanted to release me, since I had not committed a capital offense.

When Paul realized that one part of them were Sadducees and the other part were Pharisees, he cried out in the Sanhedrin,“ Brothers, I am a Pharisee, a son of Pharisees! I am being judged because of the hope of the resurrection of the dead!”When he said this, a dispute broke out between the Pharisees and the Sadducees, and the assembly was divided.For the Sadducees say there is no resurrection, and no angel or spirit, but the Pharisees affirm them all.The shouting grew loud, and some of the scribes of the Pharisees’ party got up and argued vehemently:“ We find nothing evil in this man. What if a spirit or an angel has spoken to him?”

Instead they had some disagreements with him about their own religion and about a certain Jesus, a dead man Paul claimed to be alive.Since I was at a loss in a dispute over such things, I asked him if he wished to go to Jerusalem and be tried there concerning these matters.

When he arrived, the Jews who had come down from Jerusalem stood around him and brought many serious charges that they were not able to prove,while Paul made the defense that,“ Neither against the Jewish law, nor against the temple, nor against Caesar have I sinned at all.”

For we have found this man to be a plague, an agitator among all the Jews throughout the Roman world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes!He even tried to desecrate the temple, so we apprehended him and wanted to judge him according to our law.

If then I am doing wrong, or have done anything deserving of death, I do not refuse to die, but if there is nothing to what these men accuse me of, no one can give me up to them. I appeal to Caesar!”

When the governor motioned to him to speak, Paul replied:“ Because I know you have been a judge of this nation for many years, I am glad to offer my defense in what concerns me.You are able to determine that it is no more than 12 days since I went up to worship in Jerusalem.They didn’t find me disputing with anyone or causing a disturbance among the crowd, either in the temple complex or in the synagogues or anywhere in the city.Neither can they provide evidence to you of what they now bring against me.But I confess this to you: I worship my fathers’ God according to the Way, which they call a sect, believing all the things that are written in the Law and in the Prophets.And I have a hope in God, which these men themselves also accept, that there is going to be a resurrection, both of the righteous and the unrighteous.I always do my best to have a clear conscience toward God and men.After many years, I came to bring charitable gifts and offerings to my nation,and while I was doing this, some Jews from Asia found me ritually purified in the temple, without a crowd and without any uproar.It is they who ought to be here before you to bring charges, if they have anything against me.Either let these men here state what wrongdoing they found in me when I stood before the Sanhedrin,or about this one statement I cried out while standing among them,‘ Today I am being judged before you concerning the resurrection of the dead.’”
