Acts 23 of the NIV Bible details Paul's appearance before the Sanhedrin, where a dispute arises between the Pharisees and Sadducees due to his statements about the resurrection. Following an attempted plot on his life by a group of Jews, Paul's nephew learns of the danger and informs a Roman commander. The commander then orchestrates Paul's safe transfer to Caesarea under heavy guard, and sends a letter explaining the situation to Governor Felix, to whom Paul is delivered for his case to be heard.
