Acts 4:1-13

Peter and John Before the Council

1And as they were speaking to the people, the priests and athe captain of the temple and bthe Sadducees came upon them, 2greatly annoyed because they were teaching the people and proclaiming cin Jesus the resurrection from the dead. 3And they arrested them and dput them in custody until the next day, for it was already evening. 4But many of those who had heard the word believed, and ethe number of the men came to about five thousand.

5On the next day their rulers and elders and scribes gathered together in Jerusalem, 6with fAnnas the high priest and gCaiaphas and John and Alexander, and all who were of the high-priestly family. 7And when they had set them in the midst, they inquired, hBy what power or iby what name did you do this?” 8Then Peter, jfilled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, “Rulers of the people and elders, 9if we are being examined today kconcerning a good deed done to a crippled man, by what means this man has been healed, 10let it be known to all of you and to all the people of Israel that lby the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, mwhom God raised from the deadby him this man is standing before you well. 11 nThis Jesus
Greek  This one
is the stone that was prejected by you, the builders, which has become the cornerstone.
Greek the head of the corner
12And there is rsalvation sin no one else, for tthere is no other uname under heaven given among men
The Greek word anthropoi refers here to both men and women
by which we must be saved.”

13 wNow when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated, common men, they were astonished. And they recognized that they had been with Jesus.
