Apostlenes gjerninger 5,21

Witness and missionObedience

19 Men om natten åpnet en Herrens engel fengselsdørene og førte dem ut.

20 “Gå, stå i tempelgårdene,” sa han, “og del med folket om dette nye livet.”

Ved daggry gikk de inn i tempelgårdene og begynte å undervise. Da ypperstepresten og hans tilhengere ankom, kalte de sammen Sanhedrin—den fullstendige forsamlingen av Israels eldste—og sendte til fengselet etter apostlene.

22 Men da offiserene ankom, fant de dem ikke i fengselet, så de vendte tilbake og rapporterte,

23 “Vi fant fengselet sikkert låst, med vaktene stående ved dørene; men da vi åpnet dem, fant vi ingen inne.”
