Acts 23:8The Passion TranslationPaul knew that the Sadducees teach there is no resurrection and do not believe in angels or spirits, but the separated ones believe in them all. See the chapter |
The teaching and preaching of Peter and John angered the priests, the captain of the temple police, and representatives of the Jewish sect of the Sadducees. They were furious that the people were being taught that in Jesus there is a resurrection from the dead. So while Peter and John were still speaking, the Jewish authorities came to the temple courts to oppose them.
