Acts 4:15 Context
13¶ Now when they sawe the boldnesse of Peter and Iohn, and perceiued that they were vnlearned and ignorant men, they marueiled, and they tooke knowledge of them, that they had bene with Iesus. 14And beholding the man which was healed, standing with them, they could say nothing against it. 15But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the Council, they conferred among themselues, 16Saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed a notable miracle hath bene done by them, is manifest to all them that dwell in Hierusalem, and we cannot denie it. 17But that it spread no farther among the people, let vs straitly threaten them, that they speake henceforth to no man in this Name.
