Ananias and Sapphira keep back part of the price, and fall down and die
아나니아와 삽비라가 땅값 얼마를 감추고 엎드러져 혼이 떠남
Acts 5:1–11: a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sells a possession and keeps back part of the price, his wife also being aware of it, then brings a certain part and lays it at the apostles’ feet. Peter says, “Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and to keep back part of the price of the land? While you kept it, didn’t it remain your own? After it was sold, wasn’t it in your power? How is it that you have conceived this thing in your heart? You haven’t lied to men, but to God.” Ananias, hearing these words, falls down and dies, and great fear comes on all who hear these things. The young men arise and wrap him up, and they carry him out and bury him. About three hours later, his wife, not knowing what has happened, comes in. Peter answers her, “Tell me whether you sold the land for so much.” She says, “Yes, for so much.” Peter asks her, “How is it that you have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? Behold, the feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out.” She falls down immediately at Peter’s feet and dies. The young men come in and find her dead, and they carry her out and bury her by her husband. Great fear comes on the whole assembly, and on all who hear these things.
