Notes on this text (3)

1 U ono pak vreme podiže Irod car ruke da muči neke od crkve. 2 I pogubi Jakova brata Jovanovog mačem. 3 I videvši da je to po volji Jevrejima nastavi da uhvati i Petra (a behu dani presnih hlebova), 4 kog i uhvati i baci u tamnicu i predade ga četvorici četvrtnika vojničkih da ga čuvaju, i mišljaše ga po pashi izvesti pred narod. 5 I tako Petra čuvahu u tamnici; a crkva moljaše se za njega Bogu bez prestanka. 6 A kad htede Irod da ga izvede, onu noć spavaše Petar među dvojicom vojnika, okovan u dvoje verige, a stražari pred vratima čuvahu tamnicu. 7 I gle, anđeo Gospodnji pristupi, i svetlost obasja po sobi, i kucnuvši Petra u rebra probudi ga govoreći: Ustani brže. I spadoše mu verige s ruku. 8 A anđeo mu reče: Opaši se, i obuj opanke svoje. I učini tako. I reče mu anđeo: Obuci haljinu svoju, pa hajde za mnom. 9 I izišavši iđaše za njim, i ne znaše da je to istina što anđeo činjaše, nego mišljaše da vidi utvaru. 10 A kad prođoše prvu stražu i drugu i dođoše k vratima gvozdenim koja vođahu u grad, ona im se sama otvoriše; i izišavši prođoše jednu ulicu, i anđeo odmah odstupi od njega. 11 I kad dođe Petar k sebi reče: Sad zaista vidim da Bog posla anđela svog te me izbavi iz ruku Irodovih i od svega čekanja naroda jevrejskog. 12 I razmislivši dođe kući Marije matere Jovana koji se zvaše Marko, gde behu mnogi sabrani i moljahu se Bogu. 13 A kad kucnu Petar u vrata od dvora, pristupi devojka po imenu Roda, da čuje. 14 I poznavši glas Petrov od radosti ne otvori vrata, nego utrča i kaza da Petar stoji pred vratima. 15 A oni joj rekoše: Jesi li ti luda? A ona potvrđivaše da je tako. A oni govorahu: Anđeo je njegov. 16 A Petar jednako kucaše. A kad otvoriše, videše ga, i udiviše se. 17 A on mahnuvši na njih rukom da ćute, kaza im kako ga Gospod izvede iz tamnice; i reče javite ovo Jakovu i braći. I izišavši otide na drugo mesto. 18 A kad bi dan, beše ne mala buna među vojnicima, šta to bi od Petra. 19 A kad ga Irod zaiska i ne nađe, onda ispita stražare, i zapovedi da ih odvedu; i izišavši iz Judeje u Ćesariju onamo življaše. 20 Jer se Irod srđaše na Tirce i Sidonce. Ali oni jednodušno dođoše k njemu, i uzevši na svoju ruku Vlasta, posteljnika carevog, iskahu mira, jer se njihove zemlje hranjahu od njegovog carstva. 21 A u određeni dan obuče se Irod u carsku haljinu, i sedavši na presto govoraše im; 22 a narod vikaše: Ovo je glas Božji, a ne čovečiji. 23 Ali ujedanput udari ga anđeo Gospodnji: jer ne dade slave Bogu; i budući izjeden od crvi izdahnu. 24 A reč Božija rastijaše i množaše se. 25 A Varnava i Savle predavši pomoć vratiše se iz Jerusalima u Antiohiju, uzevši sa sobom Jovana koji se zvaše Marko.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Commentary 12:1 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Acts of the Apostles (Homily XXVI)

    "At that time," of course meaning the time immediately following: for this is the custom of Scripture. And he well says that Herod "the king" (did this): this was not he of Christ's time.

    Was there not present there amongst those seven, another son of Zebedee, the brother of John, who, after His ascension, is plainly recorded to have been slain by Herod? But some one may say that, as James was not crucified, it was properly enough said to Peter, "Follow me," inasmuch as he underwent not only death, but, like Christ, even …

Moreover, the fountains failing, when sacrifices were made …
