Acts 5:13. τῶν δὲ λοιπῶν: variously interpreted (1) of the rest of the believers in contrast to the Apostles, but this is unnatural, as the Apostles are not elsewhere regarded as objects of fear to their fellow-believers, and ἅπαντες above certainly need not = ἀπόστολοι as Hilgenfeld interprets it.

13 None of the rest dared join them, but the people held them in high esteem. 14 And more than ever believers were added to the Lord, multitudes of both men and women, 15 so that they even carried out the sick into the streets and laid them on cots and mats, that as Peter came by at least his shadow might fall on some of them.

What does Acts 5:13 mean? It's unclear what it means that "none of the rest dared join them." It probably means that only the apostles preached on the temple mount while the other Jesus-followers remained in town.
What does Acts chapter 5 mean? The book of Acts is the story of submission, by Jesus' witnesses, to the Holy Spirit and the work He accomplishes as a result. In very short order, the Holy Spirit used two apostles to join well over five thousand people into the church (Acts 4:4).
Acts 5 is a testament to the raw and unfiltered early days of the Church. The severity of Ananias and Sapphira's punishment underscores the sacred nature of truth within the Christian community, while the apostles' miraculous escape from prison highlights God's divine intervention.
