When the captain of the temple guard and the chief priests heard this, they were at a loss about them, wondering what would come of it.
In context
22But when the officers arrived they did not find them in the prison, so they went back and reported: 23“We found the jail securely locked and the guards standing at the doors; but when we opened it, we found no one inside.” 24When the captain of the temple guard and the chief priests heard this, they were at a loss about them, wondering what would come of it. 25Then someone arrived with the news: “Look, the men you put in prison are standing in the temple, teaching the people.” 26So the captain went off with his officers and brought them in, but without force, for they were afraid of being stoned by the people.
