Acts 5:29 In-Context

27 The apostles were brought before the council where the high priest confronted them:
28 "In no uncertain terms, we demanded that you not teach in this name. And look at you! You have filled Jerusalem with your teaching. And you are determined to hold us responsible for this man's death."
29 Peter and the apostles replied, "We must obey God rather than humans!
30 The God of our ancestors raised Jesus from the dead—whom you killed by hanging him on a tree.
31 God has exalted Jesus to his right side as leader and savior so that he could enable Israel to change its heart and life and to find forgiveness for sins.
