said this, he fell asleep.) 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. Some devout men buried Stephen, and
made loud lamentation over him. But Saul began
ravaging the church, entering house after house,
and dragging off men and women, he would put
them in prison.
