Gamaliel in the Bible - a Christian perspective
Gamaliel was a leader in the Sanhedrin who defended the early Christians in a roundabout way. When the apostles were on trial in front of the Sanhedrin, Gamaliel stood up and said that like others who had come before the Christians, if what they were doing was not of God it would die out. On these grounds the apostles were only flogged and released.
