Theme of chapter: King Herod begins to persecute the church. He kills James the brother of John an imprisons Peter. An angel of the Lord breaks his chains and lets him out. His people can't believe it is him.
Most prominent word: quaternions (squad of four soldiers)
Teaching about Christ: God answers prayerCommand to obey: Pray without ceasing.
New truth learned: Even though the people prayed without ceasing, their faith was still not enough that God would actually answer their prayers. They couldn't believe it was Peter knocking at the gate. They thought it was his spirit.
