They arrested the apostles The phrase "They arrested the apostles" marks a significant moment in the early Christian church's history. The "they" refers to the religious authorities, specifically the high priest and his associates, who were threatened by the apostles' growing influence and the spread of the Gospel. The Greek word for "arrested" is "ἐπέβαλον" (epebalon), which implies a forceful laying of hands upon someone, indicating the hostility and aggression of the authorities. The "apostles" were the chosen messengers of Jesus Christ, tasked with spreading His teachings. This arrest was not just a legal action but a spiritual confrontation between the nascent Christian movement and the established religious order. Historically, this reflects the tension between the early church and Jewish leaders, who saw the apostles' message as a challenge to their authority and traditions. and put them in the public jail Parallel Commentaries ...
