Acts 23:5-7

Modern English Version

⁵ Paul said, “Brothers, I did not know that he was the high priest. For it is written, ‘You shall not speak evil of the ruler of your people.’^[a]”

⁶ Then Paul, knowing that one sect were Sadducees and the other Pharisees, cried out among the Sanhedrin, “Brothers, I am a Pharisee, a son of a Pharisee. I am being judged for my hope in the resurrection of the dead.” ⁷ When he had said this, dissension arose between the Pharisees and the Sadducees, and the assembly was divided.
