But the angel of the Lord by night opened the prism doors, and brought them forth, and said,

A. D. 33.

τῇ φυλακῇ, εἰσὶν ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ ἑστῶτες καὶ διδάσκοντες τὸν λαόν.

Then came one and told them, saying,

See on Matt.xviii. ver. 10. clause 2. Behold, the men whom ye put in prison are standing in the temple, and teaching the people.

VER. 20.

Πορεύεσθε, καὶ σταθέντες λαλεῖτε ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ τῷ λαῷ πάντα τὰ ῥήματα τῆς ζωῆς ταύτης.

VER. 26.

Τότε ἀπελθὼν ὁ στρατηγὸς σὺν τοῖς Go, stand and speak in the temple to ἐφοβοῦντο γὰρ τὸν λαὸν ἵνα μὴ λιθασθῶσιν. ὑπηρέταις, ἤγαγεν αὐτοὺς, οὐ μετὰ βίας the people all the words of this life.

VER. 21.

̓Ακούσαντες δὲ εἰσῆλθον ὑπὸ τὸν ὄρθρον εἰς τὸ ἱερὸν, καὶ ἐδίδασκον. Παραγενόμενος δὲ ὁ ̓Αρχιερεὺς καὶ οἱ σὺν αὐτῷ, συνεκάλε σαν τὸ συνέδριον, καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γερουσίαν τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ· καὶ ἀπέστειλαν εἰς τὸ δεσμωτήριον, ἀχθῆναι αὐτούς.

And when they heard that, they entered into the temple early in the morning, and taught. But the High Priest came, and they that were with him, and called the council together, and all the senate of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought.

Saying, a Did not we straitly command you that ye should not teach in this name? and, behold, ye have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and intend to bring this man's blood upon us.

a So when they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding nothing how they might punish them, because of the people: for all men glorified God for that which was done, Acts iv. 21.

liveth, what the LORD saith unto me, that will I speak, 1 Kings xxii. 14. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter. If it be so, our God, whom we serve, is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace; and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king. But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up, Dan. iii. 16-18. Then these presidents and princes assembled together to the king, and said thus unto him, King Darius, live for ever. All the presidents of the kingdom, the governors, and the princes, the counsellors, and the captains, have consulted together to establish a royal statute, and to make a firm decree, that whosoever shall ask a petition of any god or man for thirty days, save of thee, O king, he shall be cast into the den of lions. Now, O king, establish the decree, and sign the writing, that it be not changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which altereth not. Wherefore king Darius signed the writing and the decree. Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house; and, his windows being open in his chamber toward Jerusalem, he kneeled upon his knees three times a-day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did aforetime. Then these men assembled, and found Daniel praying and making supplication before his God, vi. 6-11. Then saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Cæsar the things which are Cæsar's, and unto God the things that are God's, Matt. xxii. 21. By faith Moses, -when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter; choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season; Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward. By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible, Heb. xi. 24-27. And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any

Here is the patience of the saints; here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus, Rev. xiv. 9-12.

And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob my servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, even they, and their children, and their children's children for ever: and my servant David shall be their prince for ever, Ezek. xxxvii. 25.
