In context

⁴Surely all the Jews know how I have lived from my earliest childhood among my own people, and also in Jerusalem.

⁵They have known me for a long time and can testify, if they are willing, that I lived as a Pharisee, adhering to the strictest sect of our religion.

⁶And now I stand on trial because of my hope in the promise that God made to our fathers,

⁷The promise our twelve tribes are hoping to see fulfilled as they earnestly serve God day and night. It is because of this hope, O king, that I am accused by the Jews.

⁸Why would any of you consider it incredible that God raises the dead?
