For an obvious sign, evident to all who live in Jerusalem, has been done through them, and we cannot deny it!However, so this does not spread any further among the people, let’s threaten them against speaking to anyone in this name again.”So they called for them and ordered them not to preach or teach at all in the name of Jesus.But Peter and John answered them,“ Whether it’s right in the sight of God for us to listen to you rather than to God, you decide;for we are unable to stop speaking about what we have seen and heard.”After threatening them further, they released them. They found no way to punish them, because the people were all giving glory to God over what had been done;for this sign of healing had been performed on a man over 40 years old.
