19 but they simply had some 1points of disagreement with him about their own 2religion and about a dead man, Jesus, whom Paul asserted to be alive.
20 "3Being at a loss how to investigate such matters, I asked whether he was willing to go to Jerusalem and there stand trial on these matters.
21 "But when Paul 4appealed to be held in custody for the Emperor's decision, I ordered him to be kept in custody until I send him to Caesar."
22 Then 5Agrippa said to Festus, "I also would like to hear the man myself." "Tomorrow," he said, "you shall hear him."

Paul before Agrippa

23 So, on the next day when 6Agrippa came together with 7Bernice amid great pomp, and entered the auditorium accompanied by the commanders and the prominent men of the city, at the command of Festus, Paul was brought in.
24 Festus said, "King Agrippa, and all you gentlemen here present with us, you see this man about whom 8all the people of the Jews appealed to me, both at Jerusalem and here, loudly declaring that 9he ought not to live any longer.
25 "But I found that he had committed 10nothing worthy of death; and since he himself 11appealed to the Emperor, I decided to send him.
26 "Yet I have nothing definite about him to write to my lord. Therefore I have brought him before you all and especially before you, King Agrippa, so that after the investigation has taken place, I may have something to write.
27 "For it seems absurd to me in sending a prisoner, not to indicate also the charges against him."
