Acts 5:19-23

19But an angel of the Lord opened the doors of the jail during the night, brought them out, and said,

20“Go and stand in the temple, and tell the people all about this life.”

21Hearing this, they entered the temple at daybreak and began to teach. When the high priest and those who were with him arrived, they convened the Sanhedrin — the full council of the Israelites — and sent orders to the jail to have them brought.

22But when the servants got there, they did not find them in the jail; so they returned and reported,

23“We found the jail securely locked, with the guards standing in front of the doors, but when we opened them, we found no one inside.”
