Gevurot 25:25 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 25:25

But when I found that he had committed nothing worthy of
death
Which was a public testimony of the apostle's innocence, to the great mortification of his enemies, some of whom might be present; a like testimony was given of him by Lysias, ( Acts 23:29 ) .

And that he himself hath appealed unto Augustus;
the Emperor Nero; see ( Acts 25:21 ) .

I have determined to send him;
having had the opinion of his council upon it.

Gevurot 25:25 In-Context

23 Then on the next day Agrippa and Bernice came with great pomp and entered into the auditorium along with both the military tribunes and the chashuve anashim of Caesarea. And Festus the Moshel gave orders to have Rav Sha’ul brought in.
24 And Festus says, "Agrippa HaMelech and all here present with us, you see this man about whom K’lal Yisroel has petitioned me, both in Yerushalayim and here, shouting that he is no longer fit to live.
25 "But I found he has done nothing worthy of mavet, and when he appealed to Caesar, I decided to send him.
26 "But I have nothing definite to write to our sovereign; therefore, I especially brought him before you, O Agrippa HaMelech, so that, after you have examined him, I may have something I may write.
27 "For it seems unreasonable to me sending a prisoner and not having charges to report against him."
