Ac 4:1-13. PETER AND JOHN BEFORE THE SAMHEDRIM.

      1-12. the captain--of the Levitical guard.
      of the temple--annoyed at the disturbance created around it.
      and the Sadducees--who "say that there is no resurrection" (Ac 23:8), irritated at the apostles "preaching through (rather, 'in') Jesus the resurrection from the dead"; for the resurrection of Christ, if a fact, effectually overthrew the Sadducean doctrine.
