Acts 23 CEB (Common English Bible)

Here we have another speech with Paul before the people once again. He speaks to them this time though after insulting the high priest for telling them to hit him in the face, he thinks I bet I can get something going. I bet I can stir up the pot so he brings up this issue that he knows very well that there is already a dispute between the Pharisees and the sad is over the resurrection And along with the resurrection, angels and spirits, and Paul understands that this is the crucial piece of a Jewish hope that has just happened not that will happen that it just happened that Jesus the Christ the Nazarene was raised from the dead and that that is what both makes him Christ and Lord that his resurrection is at the center of all this at the center of the way, which they call a fact that it is the center of the Jewish Hope and Paul is constantly trying to help people see what a big deal the resurrection is. Obviously this addresses do not believe in the resurrection, but that doesn’t prevent Paul from drilling point drilling this point home that the resurrection is at the heart of all of this then there’s a conspiracy against his life. They’re going to kill him and then Lius the commander decides to take Paul side and tries to get Him away.
