Acts 6:9-15

9But some men from what was called the Synagogue of the Freedmen—both Cyrenians and Alexandrians, as well as some from Cilicia and Asia—stood up and began arguing with Stephen.

10But they could not withstand the wisdom and the Ruach by whom he was speaking.

11Then they secretly instigated men into saying, “We have heard him speaking blasphemous words against Moses and against God!”

12They also incited the people, the elders, and the Torah scholars; and they rushed at Stephen, seized him, and led him away to the Sanhedrin.

13They set up false witnesses who said, “This man never stops speaking words against this holy place and the Torah.

14For we have heard him saying that this Yeshua ha-Natzrati will destroy this place and change the customs that Moses handed down to us.”

15Watching him intently, everyone who was sitting in the Sanhedrin saw that his face was like the face of an angel.
