35And he said to them, Men of Israel, take care what you do about these men.
36For before this there was Theudas, who said he was someone important, to whom about four hundred men gave their support: he was put to death, and his band was broken up and came to nothing.
37After this man, there was Judas of Galilee, at the time of the numbering, and some of the people went after him: he was put to death, and all his supporters were put to flight.
38And now I say to you, Do nothing to these men, but let them be: for if this teaching or this work is of men, it will come to nothing:
39But if it is of God, you will not be able to overcome them, and you are in danger of fighting against God.
40And he seemed to them to be right: and they sent for the Apostles, and, after having them whipped and giving them orders to give no teaching in the name of Jesus, they let them go.
41So they went away from the Sanhedrin, happy to undergo shame for the Name.
