使徒行传 4:22 CUVS

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Acts 4:22

For the man ... - The age of the man is mentioned to show the certainty and greatness of the miracle. If it had been a man who had been lame but a few years, or if it had been a child or a very young man, the case would not been so remarkable. But after a continuance of 40 years, all hope of healing him by any ordinary means must have been abandoned, and all pretence that this was jugglery or deception must have been absurd. read more

Acts 4:21-22. So when they had further threatened them Namely, in severer terms than before; they let them go Not thinking it proper, all circumstances considered, to proceed to any further extremities at that time; since they could find nothing in their conduct for which they could punish them with any show of reason; because of the people Whose resentment they feared. For all men glorified God for that which was done So much wiser were they than those who ruled over them. For the... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Acts 4:1-31

Growth brings opposition (4:1-31)During the centuries leading up to the Christian era (see ‘The New Testament World’), several parties had arisen within the Jewish religion.

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Acts 4:21-22

Even in the face of open defiance the Sanhedrin could do no more than threaten the apostles again. Peter and John had done nothing wrong. Furthermore they had become popular heroes by this healing. By punishing them the rulers would have antagonized the people."Yet a legal precedent had been set that would enable the council to take, if necessary, more drastic action in the future."

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 4:1-37

Arrest of Peter and John1-22. Arrest of Peter and John. Peter’s speech before the Sanhedrin. The proceedings of the Apostles displeased the authorities, (1) because they taught the people (Acts 4:2) without having received the education and ordination of rabbis (cp.
