Acts of the Apostles 5:26

In context

24When the captain of the temple guard and the chief priests heard this, they were at a loss about them, wondering what would come of it. 25Then someone arrived with the news: “Look, the men you put in prison are standing in the temple, teaching the people.” 26So the captain went off with his officers and brought them in, but without force, for they were afraid of being stoned by the people. 27They brought them in and stood them before the Sanhedrin, and the high priest questioned them: 28“We gave you strict orders not to teach in this name, and here you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching and mean to bring this man’s blood upon us.”
