Act 23:4 | MHM | STEP | v. 4 : Some people standing nearby say, Do you insult God's high priest? (Acts 23:4 ) These may have been Jewish Christians who respected the position of the high priest, even if the man himself was wrong. Sometimes, even friends of Jesus care more about outward honors than about what is right. It is hard for Paul when both his enemies attack him and his friends misunderstand him.
