‏ Acts 5:19-20

v. 19: But during the night, an angel of the Lord came, opened the doors of the prison, and brought the apostles out. The angel told them to go and continue teaching the people in the temple (Acts 5:19–20 ^a). This miracle showed that God was with the apostles and was more powerful than the religious leaders or any prison.

v. 20: The angel commanded them, “Go, stand in the temple and tell the people all about this new life.” The apostles were told not to hide but to preach boldly about Jesus and eternal life in the most public place, the temple. They were to speak everything God had shown them, without leaving anything out.
