When Peter and John healed the cripple (Acts 3) they spent the night in jail because they spoke in the name of Jesus. One detail that I have ignored for years is what happened to that crippled man. In Acts 4:14 the Sanhedrin noticed the man standing with Peter and John. Had that man spent the night with the apostles? What an interesting first night of walking. He had gone from the lifelong bondage of an invalid into a Jewish jail. I wonder if he spent the night walking around the dungeon? Or did he listen the Peter and John tells stories about Jesus? Was his first action after leaving jail a request for baptism? Was he still holding on to Peter's coat or just his words?
