Acts 26:21 Context
19Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not disobedient vnto the heauenly vision: 20But shewed first vnto them of Damascus, and at Hierusalem, and thorowout all the coasts of Iudea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turne to God, and do works meete for repentance. 21For these causes the Iewes caught mee in the Temple, and went about to kill me. 22Hauing therefore obteined helpe of God, I continue vnto this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying none other things then those which the Prophets and Moses did say should come: 23That Christ should suffer, and that hee should be the first that should rise from the dead, & should shew light vnto the people, and to the Gentiles.
