Contextual Overview

26 Then went the ruler of the temple, with the officers, and brought them without violence: (For they feared the people, lest they should haue ben stoned) 27 And when they had brought them, they set them before the counsell. And the chiefe priest asked them, 28 Saying: dyd not we strayghtly commaunde you, that ye shoulde not teache in this name? And beholde, ye haue fylled Hierusalem with your doctrine, and intende to bryng this mans blood vpon vs. 29 Then Peter and the other Apostles aunswered, and sayde: We ought more to obey God then men. 30 The God of our fathers raysed vp Iesus, whom ye slewe, & hanged on tree. 31 Hym hath God lyft vp with his ryght hande, to be a prince and a sauiour, for to geue repentaunce to Israel, and forgeuenesse of sinnes. 32 And we are recordes of these thynges which we say, & so is also the holy ghost, whom God hath geuen to them that obey hym. 33 When they hearde that, they claue asunder, and sought meanes to slea the. 34 Then stoode there vp one in the counsell, a pharisee, named Gamaliel, a doctour of lawe, had in reputation among all the people, and commaunded the Apostles to go asyde a litle space, 35 And sayde vnto them: Ye men of Israel, take heede to your selues, what ye entende to do, as touchyng these men.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And said unto them, ye men of Israel,.... This he said after the apostles were put out, when the council was by themselves; and he addressed them as "men of Israel"; not as distinct from the priests and Levites in the council, but because they were all of the stock of Israel; for this council did not consist of Israelites only, as distinct from priests and Levites, as appears from Acts 5:21. A sanhedrim commonly consisted of each of these; though if only of Israelites it was a lawful one. Maimonides says c,

"they did not use to appoint any in the sanhedrim, but priests, Levites, and Israelites, that were genealogized and fit to be married into the priesthood---and that it was a command, that in the great sanhedrim there should be priests and Levites; as it is said, "thou shalt go to the priests and Levites"; but if they are not found, if they are all Israelites, lo, this is lawful,''

or a proper sanhedrim. His speech to them follows,

take heed to yourselves; consider well, do not act a rash and precipitant part; do not give way to passion and wrath, and hastily lay hands on these men, and destroy them; lest ye bring yourselves into disgrace and danger, and bring upon yourselves the ill-will and resentment of men, and the wrath of God: take time to consider of the matter, and deliberately consult

what ye intend to do as touching these men; what punishment to inflict upon them, whether imprisonment, scourging, or death; do nothing rashly.

c Hilchot Sanhedrin, c. 2. sect. 1. 2.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 35. What ye intend to do — τι μελλετε πρασσειν, What ye are about to do: they had already intended to destroy them; and they were now about to do it.
