NETBible

They brought forward false witnesses who said, “This man does not stop saying things against this holy place¹ and the law.²

NET Notes

¹sn This holy place is a reference to the temple.

²sn The law refers to the law of Moses. It elaborates the nature of the blasphemy in v. 11. To speak against God’s law in Torah was to blaspheme God (Deut 28:15-19). On the Jewish view of false witnesses, see Exod 19:16-18; 20:16; m. Sanhedrin 3.6; 5.1-5. Stephen’s speech in Acts 7 may indicate why the temple was mentioned.
