Not long after this, Felix came with Drusilla his wife, a Jewess, and sending for Paul, listened to him as he spoke about faith in Christ Jesus.

But when he dealt with the subjects of justice, self-control, and the judgement which was soon to come, Felix became alarmed and said, "For the present leave me, and when I can find a convenient opportunity I will send for you."

At the same time he hoped that Paul would give him money; and for this reason he sent for him the oftener to converse with him.

But after the lapse of fully two years Felix was succeeded by Porcius Festus; and being desirous of gratifying the Jews, Felix left Paul still in prison.

Festus, having entered on his duties as governor of the province, two days later went up from Caesarea to Jerusalem.

The High Priests and the leading men among the Jews immediately made representations to him against Paul, and begged him--

οἱ hoi “the”οἱ hoi “the”τῶν tōn “of the”τοῦ tou “<the>”

asking it as a favour, to Paul's prejudice--to have him brought to Jerusalem. They were planning an ambush to kill him on the way.

Festus, however, replied that Paul was in custody in Caesarea, and that he was himself going there very soon.

"Therefore let those of you," he said, "who can come, go down with me, and impeach the man, if there is anything amiss in him."

After a stay of eight or ten days in Jerusalem--not more--he went down to Caesarea; and the next day, taking his seat on the tribunal, he ordered Paul to be brought in.

Upon Paul's arrival, the Jews who had come down from Jerusalem stood round him, and brought many grave charges against him which they were unable to substantiate.

But, in reply, Paul said, "Neither against the Jewish Law, nor against the Temple, nor against Caesar, have I committed any offence whatever."

Then Festus, being anxious to gratify the Jews, asked Paul, "Are you willing to go up to Jerusalem, and there stand your trial before me on these charges?"

Ὁ Ho “<the>”τοῖς tois “from the”τῷ tō “<the>”

"I am standing before Caesar's tribunal," replied Paul, "where alone I ought to be tried. The Jews have no real ground of complaint against me, as in fact you yourself are beginning to see more clearly.

If, however, I have done wrong and have committed any offence for which I deserve to die, I do not ask to be excused that penalty. But if there is no truth in what these men allege against me, no one has the right to give me up to them as a favour. I app

Then, after conferring with the Council, Festus replied, "To Caesar you have appealed: to Caesar you shall go."

A short time after this, Agrippa the king and Bernice came to Caesarea to pay a complimentary visit to Festus;

and, during their rather long stay, Festus laid Paul's case before the king. "There is a man here," he said, "whom Felix left a prisoner,

My reply was that it is not the custom among the Romans to give up any one for punishment before the accused has had his accusers face to face, and has had an opportunity of defending himself against the charge which has been brought against him.

"When, therefore, a number of them came here, the next day I took my seat on the tribunal, without any loss of time, and ordered the man to be brought in.

But, when his accusers stood up, they did not charge him with the misdemeanours of which I had been suspecting him.

But they quarrelled with him about certain matters connected with their own religion, and about one Jesus who had died, but--so Paul persistently maintained--is now alive.

I was at a loss how to investigate such questions, and asked Paul whether he would care to go to Jerusalem and there stand his trial on these matters.
