📚 Historical Context
In the Book of Acts, which records the expansion of the early Christian church amidst persecution, King Herod Agrippa I had arrested the apostle Peter and imprisoned him to please the Jewish leaders. The believers were gathered in a house praying fervently for Peter's safety when a servant girl named Rhoda came rushing in to announce that Peter was at the door. However, they dismissed her report as impossible, suggesting it might be Peter's angel, reflecting the cultural belief in angelic visitations during that era.
