Paul spoke back at the rudeness of the High Priest. Now, my "walking with Jesus" friend, his quick and discerning mind "sees" an opportunity because of his knowledge of the temple people. (Paul knows that part of the Council is Saducees, and part are Pharisees: two groups having some very strong differences of opinion.) Now, watch THIS, my friends: Using this knowledge to his great advantage, Paul loudly declares:" Brothers, I am a Pharisee, as were all my ancestors. And I am being tried here because I BELIEVE in the resurrection of the dead." Well, his statement divided the Council right down the middle: the Pharisees against the Saducees, because the Saducees say there is no resurrection or angels or even an eternal spirit within us, BUT, the Pharisees believe in all of these. Paul "hit the nail on the head," succeeding in splitting the Council into two factions, causing a great
clamor and conflict between the two opposing sets of belief, and, basically shutting down the proceedings. Men were pulling at him from both sides. (Acts 23:6-10) What will the Commander do?
