15 As a result of what the apostles were doing, sick people were carried out into the streets and placed on beds and mats so that at least Peter's shadow might fall on some of them as he passed by.
16 And crowds of people came in from the towns around Jerusalem, bringing those who were ill or who had evil spirits in them; and they were all healed.
17 Then the High Priest and all his companions, members of the local party of the Sadducees, became extremely jealous of the apostles; so they decided to take action.
18 They arrested the apostles and put them in the public jail.
19 But that night an angel of the Lord opened the prison gates, led the apostles out, and said to them,
20 “Go and stand in the Temple, and tell the people all about this new life.”
21 The apostles obeyed, and at dawn they entered the Temple and started teaching.The High Priest and his companions called together all the Jewish elders for a full meeting of the Council; then they sent orders to the prison to have the apostles brought before them.
