Acts 26:21 in context

  1. 19“Therefore, King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision,
  2. 20but declared first to them of Damascus, at Jerusalem, and throughout all the country of Judea, and also to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, doing works worthy of repentance.
  3. 21For this reason the Jews seized me in the temple and tried to kill me.
  4. 22Having therefore obtained the help that is from God, I stand to this day testifying both to small and great, saying nothing but what the prophets and Moses said would happen,
  5. 23how the Christ must suffer, and how, by the resurrection of the dead, he would be first to proclaim light both to these people and to the Gentiles.”
