1 Peter and John were still speaking to the people when some priests, the officer in charge of the Temple guards, and some Sadducees arrived.
2 They were annoyed because the two apostles were teaching the people that Jesus had risen from death, which proved that the dead will rise to life.
3 So they arrested them and put them in jail until the next day, since it was already late.
4 But many who heard the message believed; and the number grew to about five thousand.
