⁸ And they gave out the words of the book the law of God, clearly, and gave the sense of it, so that their minds were able to take it in.

² And the Lord gave me an answer, and said, Put the vision in writing and make it clear on stones, so that the reader may go quickly.

²¹ You have knowledge that it was said in old times, You may not put to death; and, Whoever puts to death will be in danger of being judged:

²² But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be in danger of being judged; and he who says to his brother, Raca, will be in danger from the Sanhedrin; and whoever says, You foolish one, will be in danger of the hell of fire.

²⁷ You have knowledge that it was said, You may not have connection with another man's wife:

²⁸ But I say to you that everyone whose eyes are turned on a woman with desire has had connection with her in his heart.

²⁷ And he made clear to them all the things in the Writings, from Moses and from all the prophets, which had to do with himself.

³² And they said to one another, Were not our hearts burning in us while he was talking to us on the way, making clear to us the holy Writings?

⁴⁵ Then he made the holy Writings clear to their minds.

³⁰ And Philip, running up to him, saw that he was reading Isaiah the prophet, and said to him, Is the sense of what you are reading clear to you?

³¹ And he said, How is that possible when I have no guide? And he made Philip get up by his side.

³² Now the place in the book where he was reading was this: He was taken, like a sheep, to be put to death; and as a lamb is quiet when its wool is being cut, so he made no sound:

³³ Being of low degree, his cause was not given a hearing: who has knowledge of his family? for his life is cut off from the earth.

³⁴ And the Ethiopian said to Philip, About whom are these words said by the prophet? about himself, or some other?

³⁵ So Philip, starting from this writing, gave him the good news about Jesus.

² And Paul, as he generally did, went in to them, and on three Sabbath days had discussions with them from the holy Writings,

³ Saying to them clearly and openly that Christ had to be put to death and come back to life again; and that this Jesus, whom, he said, I am preaching to you, is the Christ.

²³ And when a day had been fixed, they came to his house in great numbers; and he gave them teaching, giving witness to the kingdom of God, and having discussions with them about Jesus, from the law of Moses and from the prophets, from morning till evening.
