Hechos 16:24 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 16:24

Who having received such a charge
So strict an one from the magistrates, was doubly careful and diligent: thrust them into the inner prison:
the innermost part of it, the lowest or furthest part of the prison; so that there were the more doors, bolts, and bars, to break open, and pass through, should they attempt to make their escape: and made their feet fast in the stocks;
or "wood", a wooden machine, in which the feet of prisoners were put for security, and which we call "the stocks"; some say it was such an one, in which the neck as well as the feet were put, and so might be the same with our "pillory".

Hechos 16:24 In-Context

22 La multitud se levant贸 a una contra ellos, y los magistrados superiores, rasg谩ndoles sus ropas, ordenaron que los azotaran con varas.
23 Y despu茅s de darles muchos azotes, los echaron en la c谩rcel, ordenando al carcelero que los guardara con seguridad;
24 el cual, habiendo recibido esa orden, los ech贸 en el calabozo interior y les asegur贸 los pies en el cepo.
25 Como a medianoche, Pablo y Silas oraban y cantaban himnos a Dios, y los presos los escuchaban.
26 De repente se produjo un gran terremoto, de tal manera que los cimientos de la c谩rcel fueron sacudidos; al instante se abrieron todas las puertas y las cadenas de todos se soltaron.
