Acts 5:20

The Apostles Arrested And Imprisoned

¹⁹ But an angel from the Lord one night [miraculously] opened the jail doors and released them, saying, ²⁰ "You men, go and stand in the Temple and speak to all the people words about this Life [i.e., about Jesus]." [See John 14:6]. ²¹ And when the apostles heard this, they entered the Temple about dawn and began teaching [about Jesus]. [A little later] the head priest and the Sadducees [see verse 17] called the Council [i.e., the Sanhedrin] and all of the ruling body of Jewish leaders together and sent to the jail to have the apostles brought in to them [for further questioning].
