5The next day many Jewish leaders, religious scholars, and elders of the people convened a meeting in Jerusalem. 6Annas the high priest was there with Caiaphas, John, Alexander, and others who were members of the high priest’s family. 7They made Peter and John stand in front of the council as they questioned them, saying, “Tell us, by what power and authority have you done these things?”
8Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, answered, “Respected elders and leaders of the people, listen. 9Are we being put on trial today for doing an act of kindness by healing a frail, crippled man? Well then, 10you and everyone else in Israel should know that it is by the power of the name of Jesus that the crippled man stands here today completely healed!
