Acts 8:1-3 ▼

1 Now Saul was in hearty agreement with putting him to death. And on that day a great persecution began against the church in Jerusalem, and they were all scattered throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except the apostles.

2 And some devout men buried Stephen and made loud lamentation over him.

3 But Saul began ravaging the church, entering house after house, and dragging off men and women, he was delivering them into prison.
