But an angel of the Lord opened the doors of the jail during the night, brought them out, and said,

“We found the jail securely locked, with the guards standing in front of the doors, but when we opened them, we found no one inside!”

Suddenly there was such a violent earthquake that the foundations of the jail were shaken, and immediately all the doors were opened, and everyone’s chains came loose.

When the jailer woke up and saw the doors of the prison open, he drew his sword and was going to kill himself, since he thought the prisoners had escaped.

Then Peter said to her, “Why did you agree to test the Spirit of the Lord? Look! The feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out!”

After they arrived and gathered the church together, they reported everything God had done with them and that He had opened the door of faith to the Gentiles.

So he left there and went to the house of a man named Titius Justus, a worshiper of God, whose house was next door to the synagogue.

On the night before Herod was to bring him out for execution, Peter, bound with two chains, was sleeping between two soldiers, while the sentries in front of the door guarded the prison.

He knocked at the door in the gateway, and a servant named Rhoda came to answer.

Peter, however, kept on knocking, and when they opened the door and saw him, they were astounded.
