Acts 21:36 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 21:36

For the multitude of the people followed after
The captain and the soldiers, who had taken away Paul from them, and were carrying him to the castle:

crying, away with him;
or "take him away", that is, by death; or "lift him up", upon the cross, crucify him, crucify him, as they said concerning Christ.

Acts 21:36 In-Context

34 Some in the crowd shouted one thing, some another; and as he could not learn the facts because of the uproar, he ordered him to be brought into the barracks.
35 When Paul came to the steps, the violence of the mob was so great that he had to be carried by the soldiers.
36 The crowd that followed kept shouting, "Away with him!"
37 Just as Paul was about to be brought into the barracks, he said to the tribune, "May I say something to you?" The tribune replied, "Do you know Greek?
38 Then you are not the Egyptian who recently stirred up a revolt and led the four thousand assassins out into the wilderness?"
