ACTS 23:10 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And when there arose a great dissension, the chief captain, fearing lest Paul should have been pulled in pieces of them, commanded the soldiers to go down, and to take him by force from among them, and to bring him into the castle.”
And as a great dissension was breaking out, the commander, fearing that Paul would be torn to pieces by them, ordered the troops to go down and take him away from them by force, and bring him into the barracks — the Roman commander intervenes again, recognizing that the Sanhedrin is no longer judicial but mob-like. Rome's order replaces Jewish law; military force rescues Paul from fellow Jews.
