Acts 26:5-8 for they have known from the first, if they are willing to give evidence, that I was a Pharisee and my life was that of the strictest sect of our religion.

It is about this hope, your Majesty, that I am accused by some Jews. ⁸ Why do you all think it incredible that God should raise the dead?
