After Paul said that, the Pharisees and Sadducees began to quarrel, and the men in the meeting were divided.
Completely confuse their language, O Lord, because I see violence and conflict in the city.
“Don’t think that I came to bring peace to earth. I didn’t come to bring peace but conflict.
But the people of Iconium were divided. Some were for the Jews, while others were for the apostles.
When Paul saw that some of them were Sadducees and others were Pharisees, he shouted in the council, “Brothers, I’m a Pharisee and a descendant of Pharisees. I’m on trial because I expect that the dead will come back to life.”
(The Sadducees say that the dead won’t come back to life and that angels and spirits don’t exist. The Pharisees believe in all these things.)
