Acts 6:9-15

9 But opposition arose from members of the Synagogue of the Freed Slaves (as it was called), composed of Cyrenians, Alexandrians and people from Cilicia and the province of Asia. They argued with Stephen,
10 but they could not stand up against his wisdom or the Spirit by which he spoke.
11 So they secretly persuaded some men to allege, "We heard him speak blasphemously against Moshe and against God."
12 They stirred up the people, as well as the elders and the Torah-teachers; so they came and arrested him and led him before the Sanhedrin.
13 There they set up false witnesses who said, "This man never stops speaking against this holy place and against the Torah;
14 for we have heard him say that Yeshua from Natzeret will destroy this place and will change the customs Moshe handed down to us."
15 Everyone sitting in the Sanhedrin stared at Stephen and saw that his face looked like the face of an angel.
