Acts 12:10 - Forerunner Commentary

Acts 12:10

8 Then the angel said to him, “Gird yourself and tie on your sandals”; and so he did. And he said to him, “Put on your garment and follow me.”

9 So he went out and followed him, and ^adid not know that what was done by the angel was real, but thought ^bhe was seeing a vision.

10 When they were past the first and the second guard posts, they came to the iron gate that leads to the city, ^awhich opened to them of its own accord; and they went out and went down one street, and immediately the angel departed from him.

11 And when Peter had come to himself, he said, “Now I know for certain that ^athe Lord has sent His angel, and ^bhas delivered me from the hand of Herod and from all the expectation of the Jewish people.”

12 So, when he had considered this, ^ahe came to the house of Mary, the mother of ^bJohn whose surname was Mark, where many were gathered together ^cpraying.

13 And as Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a girl named Rhoda came to answer.

14 When she recognized Peter’s voice, because of her gladness she did not open the gate, but ran in and announced that Peter stood before the gate.
