Acts 23:9 in Context — Acts 23
7 Quand il eut dit cela, il s’éleva une discussion entre les pharisiens et les sadducéens, et l’assemblée se divisa.
8 Car les sadducéens disent qu’il n’y a point de résurrection, et qu’il n’existe ni ange ni esprit, tandis que les pharisiens affirment les deux choses.
9 Il y eut une grande clameur, et quelques scribes du parti des pharisiens, s’étant levés, engagèrent un vif débat, et dirent: Nous ne trouvons aucun mal en cet homme; peut-être un esprit ou un ange lui a-t-il parlé.
10 Comme la discorde allait croissant, le tribun craignant que Paul ne fût mis en pièces par ces gens, fit descendre les soldats pour l’enlever du milieu d’eux et le conduire à la forteresse.
11 La nuit suivante, le Seigneur apparut à Paul, et dit: Prends courage; car, de même que tu as rendu témoignage de moi dans Jérusalem, il faut aussi que tu rendes témoignage dans Rome.
