Peter and John Before the Council

1 And as they were speaking to the people, the priests and the captain of the temple and the ^xSadducees came upon them, 2 greatly annoyed because they were teaching the people and proclaiming in Jesus the ^yresurrection from the dead.

6 Now when Paul perceived that one part were Sadducees and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, “Brothers, ^yI am a Pharisee, a son of Pharisees. It is with respect to the ^zhope and the resurrection of the dead that I am on trial.” 7 And when he had said this, a dissension arose between the Pharisees and the Sadducees, and the assembly was divided. 8 For the Sadducees say that there is no ^aresurrection, nor angel, nor spirit, but the Pharisees acknowledge them all.
