And the young men arose, wound him up, and carried e John 19. 40. 7 him out, and buried him. And it was about the space of three hours after, when his wife, not knowing what 8 was done, came in. And Peter answered unto her, Tell me whether ye sold the land for so much? And 9 she said, Yea, for so much. Then Peter said unto her, How is it that ye have agreed together fto tempt fver. 3. the Spirit of the Lord? behold, the feet of them which have buried thy husband are at the door, and shall 10 carry thee out.

But the angel of the Lord by night opened rch. 12. 7. the prison doors, and brought them forth, and said, 20 Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people all s John 6. 68. 21 the words of this life. And when they heard that, 1 John 5. 11. they entered into the temple early in the morning, and taught. But the high priest came, and they that were t ch. 4. 5, 6. with him, and called the council together, and all the senate of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison 22 to have them brought. But when the officers came, and found them not in the prison, they returned, and 23 told, saying, The prison truly found we shut with all safety, and the keepers standing without before the doors: but when we had opened, we found no man 24 within. Now when the high priest and "the captain u Luke 22. 4. of the temple and the chief priests heard these things, they doubted of them whereunto this would grow. 25 Then came one and told them, saying, Behold, the men whom ye put in prison are standing in the tem26 ple, and teaching the people. Then went the captain with the officers, and brought them without violence: * for they feared the people, lest they should have been x Matt. 21.26. 27 stoned.
