Peter and John Arrested

1 Now as they spoke to the people, the priests, the captain of the temple, and the aSadducees came upon them,  
2 being greatly disturbed that they taught the people and preached in Jesus the resurrection from the dead.
3 And they laid hands on them, and put them in custody until the next day, for it was already evening.
4 However, many of those who heard the word believed; and the number of the men came to be about five thousand.

Addressing the Sanhedrin

5 And it came to pass, on the next day, that their rulers, elders, and scribes,
6 as well as aAnnas the high priest, Caiaphas, John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the family of the high priest, were gathered together at Jerusalem.  
7 And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, a“By what power or by what name have you done this?”  
8 aThen Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, “Rulers of the people and elders of Israel:  
9 If we this day are judged for a good deed done to a helpless man, by what means he has been made well,
10 let it be known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, athat by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, bwhom God raised from the dead, by Him this man stands here before you whole.  
11 This is the a‘stone which was rejected by you builders, which has become the chief cornerstone.’  
12 aNor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”  

The Name of Jesus Forbidden

13 Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, aand perceived that they were uneducated and untrained men, they marveled. And they realized that they had been with Jesus.  
14 And seeing the man who had been healed astanding with them, they could say nothing against it.
