Overview - Acts 5 | |
1 | After that Ananias and Sapphira his wife for their hypocrisy, at Peter's rebuke had fallen down dead; |
12 | and that the rest of the apostles had wrought many miracles; |
14 | to the increase of the faith; |
17 | the apostles are again imprisoned; |
19 | but delivered by an angel bidding them preach openly to all; |
21 | when, after their teaching accordingly in the temple, |
29 | and before the council, |
33 | they are in danger to be killed; but through the advice of Gamaliel, a great counsellor among the Jews, they are kept alive, and are only beaten; |
41 | for which they glorify God, and cease no day from preaching. |
