They stopped their ears - Acts 7:57  Already heard! - Vs. 54  Determined to stop Stephen’s mouth - Vs. 58 These were Stephen’s own Jewish brethren  Jews slew the prophets  Jews slew the Righteous One - Acts 7:52  Often trouble arises from within  Acts 20:28ff; cf. Galatians 5:15; James 1:19

Some stood and watched - Acts 7:58  cf. Acts 22:20  Some watched Jesus be crucified  Matthew 27:36  Edomites condemned for being spectators  “ In the day that thou stoodest on the other side, in the day that strangers carried away his substance, and foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots upon Jerusalem, even thou wast as one of them” - Obadiah 11
