Acts 23:6-10

6But Paul, perceiving that one group were 1Sadducees and the other Pharisees, began crying out in 2the 3Council, “45Brothers, 6I am a Pharisee, a son of Pharisees; I am on trial for 7the hope and resurrection of the dead!” 7When he said this, a dissension occurred between the Pharisees and Sadducees, and the assembly was divided. 8For 8the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, nor an angel, nor a spirit, but the Pharisees acknowledge them all. 9And a great uproar occurred; and some of 9the scribes of the Pharisaic party stood up and started arguing heatedly, saying, “10We find nothing wrong with this man; 11suppose a spirit or an angel has spoken to him?” 10And when a great dissension occurred, the commander was afraid that Paul would be torn to pieces by them, and he ordered the troops to go down and take him away from them by force, and bring him into 12the barracks.
