For this reason the Jews seized me in the temple courts and tried to kill me.
In context
19 So then, King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision.
20 First to those in Damascus and Jerusalem, then to everyone in the region of Judea, and then to the Gentiles, I declared that they should repent and turn to God, performing deeds worthy of their repentance.
21 For this reason the Jews seized me in the temple courts and tried to kill me.
22 But I have had God’s help to this day, and I stand here to testify to small and great alike. I am saying nothing beyond what the prophets and Moses said would happen:
23 that the Christ would suffer, and as the first to rise from the dead, would proclaim light to our people and to the Gentiles.”
