Acts 7

Στέφανος delivers a historical recap before the Sanhedrin, tracing God's revelations to Ἀβραάμ, Ἰσαάκ, Ἰακώβ, and Μωϋσῆς outside the land and temple, indicting Israel for perpetually rejecting God's messengers and the νόμος despite the tabernacle and Solomon's house[1][2][3]. Filled with the Holy Spirit, he envisions Jesus at God's right hand; the council stones him as the first martyr, with his garments at Σαύλος's feet, while he prays for their forgiveness[1][2][4][6].
