Peter and John Arrested

Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:1 -

As they were speaking G2980 to the people G2992, the priests G2409 and the captain G4755 of the temple G2413 guard and the Sadducees G4523 came G2186 up G2186 to them,

Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:2 - being greatly G1278 disturbed G1278 because G1223 they were teaching G1321 the people G2992 and proclaiming G2605 [fn]in Jesus G2424 the resurrection G386 from the dead G3498.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:3 - And they laid G1911 hands G5495 on G1911 them and put G5087 them in prison G5084 until G1519 the next G839 day G839, for it was already G2235 evening G2073.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:4 - But many G4183 of those G3588 who had heard G191 the [fn]message G3056 believed G4100; and the number G706 of the men G435 came G1096 to be about G5613 five G4002 thousand G5505.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:5 -

On the next G839 day G839, their rulers G758 and elders G4245 and scribes G1122 were gathered G4863 together G4863 in Jerusalem G2419;

Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:6 - and Annas G452 the high G749 priest G749 was there, and Caiaphas G2533, John G2491, and Alexander G223, and all G3745 who G3745 were of high-priestly G748 descent G1085.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:7 - When they had placed G2476 them in the center G3319, they began to inquire G4441, “By what G4169 power G1411, or G2228 in what G4169 name G3686, have you done G4160 this G3778?”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:8 - Then G5119 Peter G4074, [fn]filled G4130 with the Holy G40 Spirit G4151, said G3004 to them, “[fn]Rulers G758 and elders G4245 of the people G2992,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:9 - if G1487 we are G350 [fn]on G350 trial G350 today G4594 for a benefit G2108 done G2108 to a sick G772 man G444, as to [fn]how G1722 G5101 this G3778 man G3778 has been made G4982 well G4982,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:10 - let it be known G1110 to all G3956 of you and to all G3956 the people G2992 of Israel G2474, that [fn]by the name G3686 of Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 the Nazarene G3480, whom G3739 you crucified G4717, whom G3739 God G2316 raised G1453 from the dead G3498[fn]by [fn]this G3778 name this G3778 man G3778 stands G3936 here G3936 before G1799 you in good G5199 health G5199.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:11 - [fn]He is the STONE G3037 WHICH WAS REJECTED G1848 by you, THE BUILDERS G6065, but WHICH BECAME G1096 THE CHIEF G2776 CORNERSTONE G1137.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:12 - “And there is salvation G4991 in no G3756 G3762 one G3762 else G243; for there is no G3761 other G2087 name G3686 under G5259 heaven G3772 that has been given G1325 among G1722 mankind G444 by which G3739 we must G1163 be saved G4982.”

Threat and Release

Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:13 -

Now G1161 as they observed G2334 the confidence G3954 of Peter G4074 and John G2491 and understood G2638 that they were uneducated G62 and untrained G2399 men G444, they were G2296 amazed G2296, and began to recognize G1921 them [fn]as having been G1510 with Jesus G2424.

Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:14 - And seeing G991 the man G444 who had been healed G2323 standing G2476 with them, they had G2192 nothing G3762 to say G471 in G471 reply G471.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:15 - But when they had ordered G2753 them to leave G565 the [fn]Council G4892, they began to confer G4820 with one G240 another G240,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:16 - saying G3004, “What G5101 are we to do G4160 with these G3778 men G444? For the G3754 fact G3754 that G3754 a noteworthy G1110 [fn]miracle G4592 has taken G1096 place G1096 through G1223 them is apparent G5318 to all G3956 who live G2730 in Jerusalem G2419, and we cannot G1410 G3756 deny G720 it.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:17 - “But so G2443 that G2443 it will not spread G1268 any G1909 further G1909 G4183 among G1519 the people G2992, let’s warn G546 them not to speak G2980 any G3371 longer G3371 to any G3367 person G444 in this G3778 name G3686.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:18 - And when they had summoned G2564 them, they commanded G3853 them not to speak G5350 or G3366 teach G1321 at G2527 all G2527 [fn]in the name G3686 of Jesus G2424.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:19 - But Peter G4074 and John G2491 answered G611 and said G3004 to them, “Whether G1487 it is right G1342 in G1799 the G1799 sight G1799 of G1799 God G2316 to listen G191 to you rather G3123 than G2228 to God G2316, make G2919 your own judgment G2919;
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:20 - for we cannot G1410 G3756 stop G3361 speaking G2980 about what G3739 we have seen G3708 and heard G191.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:21 - When they had threatened G4324 them further G4324, they let G630 them go G630 (finding G2147 no G3367 basis G3367 on which to punish G2849 them) on account G1223 of the people G2992, because G3754 they were all G3956 glorifying G1392 God G2316 for what had happened G1096;
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:22 - for the man G444 on whom G3739 this G3778 [fn]miracle G4592 of healing G2392 had been performed G1096 was more G4183 than forty G5062 years G2094 old.
(cf. Psa 2:1, 2 )
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:23 -

When they had been released G630, they went G2064 to their own G2398 companions and reported G518 everything G3745 that the chief G749 priests G749 and the elders G4245 had said G3004 to them.

Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:24 - And when they heard G191 this, they raised G142 their voices G5456 to God G2316 with one G3661 mind G3661 and said G3004, “[fn]Lord G1203, it is You who MADE THE HEAVEN G3772 AND THE EARTH G1093 AND THE SEA G2281, AND EVERYTHING G3956 THAT IS IN THEM,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:25 - who by the Holy G40 Spirit G4151, through the mouth G4750 of our father G3962 David G1138 Your servant G3816, said G3004,

‘WHY G2443 G5101 WERE THE [fn]NATIONS G1484 INSOLENT G5433,

AND THE PEOPLES G2992 PLOTTING G3191 IN G2756 VAIN G2756?

Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:26 -

‘THE KINGS G935 OF THE EARTH G1093 [fn]TOOK G3936 THEIR STAND G3936,

AND THE RULERS G758 WERE GATHERED G4863 TOGETHER G1909 G3588 G846

AGAINST G2596 THE LORD G2962 AND AGAINST G2596 HIS [fn]CHRIST G5547.’

Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:27 -

“For truly G1909 G225 in this G3778 city G4172 there were gathered G4863 together G4863 against G1909 Your holy G40 [fn]Servant G3816 Jesus G2424, whom G3739 You anointed G5548, both G5037 Herod G2264 and Pontius G4194 Pilate G4091, along G4862 with the [fn]Gentiles G1484 and the peoples G2992 of Israel G2474,

Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:28 - to do G4160 whatever G3745 Your hand G5495 and purpose G1012 predestined G4309 to occur G1096.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:29 - “And [fn]now G3568, Lord G2962, look G1896 at G1896 their threats G547, and grant G1325 it to Your bond-servants G1401 to speak G2980 Your word G3056 with all G3956 confidence G3954,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:30 - while G1722 You extend G1614 Your hand G5495 to heal G2392, and [fn]signs G4592 and wonders G5059 take G1096 place G1096 through G1223 the name G3686 of Your holy G40 [fn]Servant G3816 Jesus G2424.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:31 - And when they had prayed G1189, the place G5117 where G1722 G3739 they had gathered G4863 together G4863 was shaken G4531, and they were all G537 filled G4130 with the Holy G40 Spirit G4151 and began to speak G2980 the word G3056 of God G2316 with boldness G3954.

Sharing among Believers

Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:32 -

And the [fn]congregation G4128 of those G3588 who believed G4100 were of one G1520 heart G2588 and soul G5590; and not one G1520 of them [fn]claimed G3004 that anything G5100 belonging G5225 to him was his own G2398, but all G3956 things G3956 were common G2839 property G2839 to them.

Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:33 - And with great G3173 power G1411 the apostles G652 were giving G591 testimony G3142 to the resurrection G386 of the Lord G2962 Jesus G2424, and abundant G3173 grace G5485 was upon them all G3956.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:34 - For there was not a needy G1729 person G5100 among G1722 them, for all G3745 who G3745 were owners G2935 of land G5564 or G2228 houses G3614 would sell G4453 them and bring G5342 the [fn]proceeds G5092 of the sales G4097
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:35 - and lay G5087 them at the apostles’ G652 feet G4228, and they would be distributed G1239 to each G1538 to G2530 the G2530 extent G2530 that G2530 any G5100 had G2192 need G5532.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:36 -

Now Joseph G2501, a Levite G3019 of Cyprian G2953 birth G1085, who was also called G1941 Barnabas G921 by the apostles G652 (which G3739 translated G3177 means G1510 Son G5207 of [fn]Encouragement G3874),

Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:37 - [fn]owned G5225 a tract G68 of G68 land G68. So he sold G4453 it, and brought G5342 the money G5536 and laid G5087 it at the apostles’ G652 feet G4228.
