Acts 5:26 in Context — Acts 5
24 Lorsqu’ils eurent entendu ces paroles, le commandant du temple et les principaux sacrificateurs ne savaient que penser des apôtres et des suites de cette affaire.
25 Quelqu’un vint leur dire: Voici, les hommes que vous avez mis en prison sont dans le temple, et ils enseignent le peuple.
26 Alors le commandant partit avec les huissiers, et les conduisit sans violence, car ils avaient peur d’être lapidés par le peuple.
27 Après qu’ils les eurent amenés en présence du sanhédrin, le souverain sacrificateur les interrogea en ces termes:
28 Ne vous avons-nous pas défendu expressément d’enseigner en ce nom-là? Et voici, vous avez rempli Jérusalem de votre enseignement, et vous voulez faire retomber sur nous le sang de cet homme!
