Hechos 12:6 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 12:6

And when Herod would have brought him forth
The next morning; so he had determined not to dismiss him, but to expose him to the people, and to put him to such a death they should choose:

the same night, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers;
fearless of death, being in a good cause, and having nothing to ruffle and disturb his mind; and though he was in a prison, and in such company, God gave him, his beloved, sleep:

bound with two chains;
one on one hand, and one on the other, each of which were fastened to the soldiers; that on his right hand was fastened to the left hand of the soldier, that was on that side; and that on his left hand to the right hand of the soldier, on the other side him; such security was made, that he might not get away from them; to which is added,

and the keepers before the door kept the prison;
or watched it, that nobody went in, or came out.

Hechos 12:6 In-Context

4 Y habiéndolo tomado preso, lo puso en la cárcel, entregándolo a cuatro piquetes de soldados para que lo guardaran, con la intención de llevarlo ante el pueblo después de la Pascua.
5 Así pues, Pedro era custodiado en la cárcel, pero la iglesia hacía oración ferviente a Dios por él.
6 Y esa noche, cuando Herodes estaba a punto de sacarlo, Pedro estaba durmiendo entre dos soldados, sujeto con dos cadenas; y unos guardias delante de la puerta custodiaban la cárcel.
7 Y he aquí, se le apareció un ángel del Señor, y una luz brilló en la celda; y el ángel tocó a Pedro en el costado, y lo despertó diciendo: Levántate pronto. Y las cadenas cayeron de sus manos.
8 Y el ángel le dijo: Vístete y ponte las sandalias. Y así lo hizo. Y le dijo<***> el ángel: Envuélvete en tu manto y sígueme.
