The people also gathered from the towns around Jerusalem, bringing the sick and those afflicted with unclean spirits, and they were all healed. But the high priest rose up, and all who were with him (that is, the party of the Sadducees), and filled with jealousy they arrested the apostles and put them in the public prison.
I need to be careful to be a Berean and search the Scriptures carefully to make sure that any jealousy I might claim to be righteous jealousy is completely consistent with the Word of God. It is all too easy to allow envy of the success of another teacher to sway my judgment away from a Biblically sound position.
