NASB | Acts 5:34 But a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a teacher of the Law, respected by all the people, stood up in the Council and gave orders to put the men outside for a short time. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Acts 5:34 But a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a teacher of the Law [of Moses], highly esteemed by all the people, stood up in the Council (Sanhedrin, Jewish High Court) and ordered that the men be taken outside for a little while. |
Subject: Did Gamaliel give sound advice? |
Bible Note: In Acts 5:34-39, we read of Gamaliel addressing the Council regarding what to do about Peter and the apostles. Was the advice of Gamaliel sound advice? If so, should we disregard all followings or cults so that they can 'prove' themselves by standing the test of time? |
