Acts 5:26 in Context — Acts 5

24 Quando o [sumo] sacerdote, o chefe da guarda do Templo, e os chefes dos sacerdotes ouviram estas palavras, eles duvidaram deles quanto o que aquilo viria a ser.

27 E quando os trouxeram, apresentaram-nos ao supremo conselho. E o sumo sacerdote perguntou a eles, dizendo:
