<p>4:21 <i>And they, when they had threatened them further, let them go, finding no way to punish them, because of the people</i>- The same words used of how no cause of death was found in the Lord at His trial (Acts 13:28). Again, the experiences of the apostles, like our own, were arranged to enable them to enter into the experiences of the Lord. The phrase is only again used about how no cause of death was found in Paul (Acts 23:29). This is one of many examples of where the ministries of Peter and Paul are framed as being so similar. They were to take encouragement from each other, thereby realizing that the same Heavenly Lord was working through both of them in their parallel ministries to Jews and Gentiles. Paul perceived this in Gal. 2:8: &quot;For he that worked through Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, worked through me also to the Gentiles&quot;. Our lives are also structured in parallel with others, both in the Biblical record and contemporary to our times. This provides the basis for fellowship now; and also makes the Biblical record of past believers a living word to us, preparing us for eternal fellowship with them in God's Kingdom.</p><p><i>For all men glorified God for what was done</i>- Luke uses this term of how the shepherds glorified God after seeing the baby Jesus (Lk. 2:20). But &quot;saw and heard&quot; in the previous verse :20 is also used by Luke of how the shepherds &quot;saw and heard&quot;. Again Luke is demonstrating that the incidents of the Gospel records repeat in essence in the experiences of those who follow the Lord in later years.</p>
