Acts 24:13 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 24:13

Neither can they prove the things whereof they now accuse
me.
] As that he was a pestilent fellow, a mover of sedition, and a profaner of the temple these things they could not set forth in any clear light, and bring testimonies, or give demonstration of; they could not make them appear to be true, which it lay upon them to do, or otherwise in course he ought be acquitted: this was challenging and defying them to make good their assertions.

Acts 24:13 In-Context

11 As you can find out for yourself, it was no more than twelve days ago that I went to Jerusalem to worship.

12 The Jews did not find me arguing with anyone in the Temple, nor did they find me stirring up the people, either in the synagogues or anywhere else in the city.

13 Nor can they give you proof of the accusations they now bring against me.

14 I do admit this to you: I worship the God of our ancestors by following that Way which they say is false. But I also believe in everything written in the Law of Moses and the books of the prophets.

15 I have the same hope in God that these themselves have, namely, that all people, both the good and the bad, will rise from death.
