for blasphemy against our God."

and return them in chains to Jerusalem for punishment.

This was, as I have said, four years ago."

for there was a look in the old man's eyes which had not been seen by the faithful bookkeeper in many years.
他看到老人的眼神显出多年未见的光彩。
Only the splash of fountain water could be heard in the garden until Paul spoke once more.

there was a sudden flash of light from the heavens.

I remember not having been struck but I found myself on the ground
