Acts 5:24
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
When the captain of the temple guard and the chief priests heard this account, they were perplexed as to what was happening.
In context
22 But on arriving at the jail, the officers did not find them there. So they returned with the report:
23 “We found the jail securely locked, with the guards posted at the doors; but when we opened them, we found no one inside.”
24 When the captain of the temple guard and the chief priests heard this account, they were perplexed as to what was happening.
25 Then someone came in and announced, “Look, the men you put in jail are standing in the temple courts teaching the people!”
26 At that point, the captain went with the officers and brought the apostles—but not by force, for fear the people would stone them.
