Acts 12:1-5
An Angel Frees Peter from Prison
12Now about that time 1Herod the king laid hands on some who belonged to the church in order to harm them. 2And he ahad James the brother of John bput to death with a sword. 3And when he saw that it apleased the Jews, he proceeded to arrest Peter also. Now 1it was during bthe days of Unleavened Bread. 4When he had seized him, he put him in prison, delivering him to four 1,asquads of soldiers to guard him, intending after bthe Passover to bring him out before the people. 5So Peter was kept in the prison, but prayer for him was being made fervently by the church to God.
