20 Go ye and stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life.
21 And when they heard it, they entered very early into the temple and taught. And when the high priest was come, and they that were with him, they called together the council and all the elderhood of the sons of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought.

23 saying, We found the prison shut with all security, and the keepers standing at the doors; but when we had opened [them], within we found no one.
