Acts 5:25 Douay-Rheims

But one came and told them: Behold, the men whom you put in prison are in the temple standing, and teaching the people.

John Chrysostom

A.D. 347–407 Patristic

O the folly of the men! "They feared," saith he, "the multitude." Why, how had the multitude helped the Apostles? When they ought to have feared that God Who was continually delivering them like winged creatures out of their power, instead of that, "they feared the multitude!"
