Hechos 25:7 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 25:7

And when he was come
Into court:

the Jews which came down from Jerusalem;
along with Festus, perhaps the high priest with the elders, and Tertullus the orator, as before:

stood round about;
either the Apostle Paul, or the judgment seat; the witnesses and accusers were to stand, as well as the person accused; (See Gill on Mark 14:57).

And laid many and grievous complaints against Paul; which they could
not prove;
for his moral conversation, both before and after conversion, was very strict and conformable to the laws of God and man; and yet as pure and inoffensive as he was, he was not exempt from the calumnies of men; and these many and very grievous; but it was his happiness, and to his honour through the grace of God, that his enemies could not make good anyone thing against him.

Hechos 25:7 In-Context

5 Así que les dijo: «Algunos de ustedes que tengan autoridad pueden volver conmigo. Si Pablo ha hecho algo malo, entonces podrán presentar sus acusaciones».

6 Unos ocho o diez días después, Festo regresó a Cesarea y, al día siguiente, tomó su lugar en la corte y ordenó que trajeran a Pablo.

7 Cuando Pablo llegó, los líderes judíos de Jerusalén lo rodearon e hicieron muchas acusaciones graves que no podían probar.

8 Pablo negó los cargos. «No soy culpable de ningún delito contra las leyes judías, ni contra el templo, ni contra el gobierno romano», dijo.

9 Entonces Festo, queriendo complacer a los judíos, le preguntó:
—¿Estás dispuesto a ir a Jerusalén y ser juzgado ante mí allá?
