For we cannot but speak
It was not physically, but morally impossible; or it was not
lawful, and therefore they would not speak any other, and they
could not avoid speaking, say they, the things which we
have seen and heard;
as the miracles and doctrines of Christ, his resurrection from
the dead, of which they were eye and ear witnesses. This shows
their great fidelity and integrity, their inviolable attachment
to Christ, and their fearlessness of the displeasure and wrath of
men.
Acts 4:20
