Acts 23:7-10

7This divided the council—the Pharisees against the Sadducees—

8for the Sadducees say there is no resurrection or angels or spirits, but the Pharisees believe in all of these.

9So there was a great uproar. Some of the teachers of religious law who were Pharisees jumped up and began to argue forcefully. “We see nothing wrong with him,” they shouted. “Perhaps a spirit or an angel spoke to him.”

10As the conflict grew more violent, the commander was afraid they would tear Paul apart. So he ordered his soldiers to go and rescue him by force and take him back to the fortress.
