Contextual Overview
17 This roused the High Priest. He and all his party--the sect of the Sadducees--were filled with angry jealousy 18 and laid hands upon the Apostles, and put them into the public jail. 19 But during the night an angel of the Lord opened the prison doors and brought them out, and said, 20 "Go and stand in the Temple, and go on proclaiming to the people all this Message of Life." 21 Having received that command they went into the Temple, just before daybreak, and began to teach: So when the High Priest and his party came, and had called together the Sanhedrin as well as all the Elders of the descendants of Israel, they sent to the jail to fetch the Apostles. 22 But the officers went and could not find them in the prison. So they came back and brought word, 23 saying, "The jail we found quite safely locked, and the warders were on guard at the doors, but upon going in we found no one there." 24 When the Commander of the Temple Guards and the High Priests heard this statement, they were utterly at a loss with regard to it, wondering what would happen next. 25 And some one came and brought them word, saying, "The men you put in prison are actually in the Temple, standing there, teaching the people."

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Then came one and told them, saying,.... Who this man was, is of no consequence to know; it can hardly be thought that he was one of the number of the disciples, or a member of the church, or a professor of the Christian religion; but rather an enemy, and one that sought his own interest, and to obtain the favour and affection of the chief priests and elders, and therefore very officiously came to them, and reported as follows:
behold, the men whom ye put in prison, last night,
are standing in the temple; openly and publicly, and without fear;
and teaching the people; in the name of Jesus, which the sanhedrim had forbid them to do.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Acts 5:25. Then came one and told them — While they were in the perplexity mentioned above, a messenger surprised them with the information that the very men whom they had imprisoned the preceding night were standing in the temple and teaching the people!
