Commentary on Acts 4:21
The council's impotence - 'when they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding nothing how they might punish them, because of the people' - reveals political rather than legal motivation. Repeated threats without action demonstrate weakness. The phrase 'because of the people' shows fear of popular revolt. 'All men glorified God for that which was done' indicates the miracle's apologetic power - undeniable evidence produced worship even from opposition.
