Some of the Jewish council men there belonged to the mob called Sadducees, and others belonged to the mob called Pharisees. The Sadducee mob believe that after people die, they will never become alive again. And they believe that there are no spirits, not even God’s spirit messengers called angels. But the Pharisees believe that all of those things are true. Paul worked out that some of those council men were Sadducees, and some were Pharisees, so he called out loudly to them. He said, “My friends, I’m a Pharisee, like my father was. I believe that after people die, one day God will make them alive again. That’s why I’m here in this court.” As soon as Paul said that, the Pharisees and Sadducees started to argue with each other.
