Acts 4:18 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 4:18

And they called them
From the apartment where they were; or ordered their servants to call them in to them: and commanded them not to speak at all;
either privately or publicly, in the ministry of the word, or in working of miracles, in the city, or in the country: nor teach in the name of Jesus;
any doctrine whatever; or "the name of Jesus", as the Arabic version reads; that is, the doctrine of Jesus, that which respects his person, his carnation, his offices, his sufferings, death, and resurrection from the dead.

Acts 4:18 In-Context

16 "What can we do with these men?" they asked each other. "Why, anyone in Yerushalayim can see that a remarkable miracle has come about through them - we can't possibly deny that.
17 But to prevent it from spreading any further among the people, let's warn them not to speak any more to anyone in this name."
18 So they called them in again and ordered them under no circumstances to speak or teach in the name of Yeshua.
19 But Kefa and Yochanan answered, "You must judge whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you rather than God.
20 As for us, we can't help talking about what we have actually seen and heard."
