Saul Persecutes the Church
1 Now Saul was consenting to his death. At that time a great persecution arose against the church which was at Jerusalem; and athey were all scattered throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except the apostles.
2 And devout men carried Stephen to his burial, and amade great lamentation over him.
3 As for Saul, ahe made havoc of the church, entering every house, and dragging off men and women, committing them to prison.
