Atti 12:16 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 12:16

But Peter continued knocking
That they might come to him, and let him in; beginning to be impatient, and being very desirous of seeing his friends, as well as being in danger of being taken up, and had to prison again, should any of his enemies come by, who knew him:

and when they had opened the door, and saw him, they were
astonished:
they could hardly believe their own eyes; it was amazing to them, how it should be, that he should be delivered out of prison, when they knew there was such a strong guard about him.

Atti 12:16 In-Context

14 E, riconosciuta la voce di Pietro, per l’allegrezza non aperse la porta; anzi, corse dentro, e rapportò che Pietro stava davanti all’antiporto.
15 Ma essi le dissero: Tu farnetichi. Ed ella pure affermava che così era. Ed essi dicevano: Egli è il suo angelo.
16 Or Pietro continuava a picchiare. Ed essi, avendogli aperto, lo videro, e sbigottirono.
17 Ma egli, fatto lor cenno con la mano che tacessero, raccontò loro come il Signore l’avea tratto fuor di prigione. Poi disse: Rapportate queste cose a Giacomo, ed ai fratelli. Ed essendo uscito, andò in un altro luogo.
18 Ora, fattosi giorno, vi fu non piccol turbamento fra i soldati, che cosa Pietro fosse divenuto.
