Actes 25:15 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 25:15

About whom, when I was at Jerusalem
Quickly after he came to his government:

the chief priests and elders of the Jews informed me;
brought an accusation to him, exhibited to him charges against him, presented to him a bill of information, setting forth various crimes he had been guilty of:

desiring to have judgment against him;
not barely to have his cause tried, but to have a sentence of condemnation passed upon him; some copies read "condemnation", as the Alexandrian copy, and two of Beza's; and that punishment is designed, and even death itself, is manifest from the following words.

Actes 25:15 In-Context

13 Quelques jours après, le roi Agrippa et Bérénice vinrent à Césarée, pour saluer Festus.
14 Et comme ils y demeurèrent plusieurs jours, Festus informa le roi de l'affaire de Paul, en disant: Félix a laissé prisonnier un homme,
15 Contre lequel les principaux sacrificateurs et les anciens des Juifs ont porté plainte lorsque j'étais à Jérusalem, demandant sa condamnation.
16 Je leur ai répondu que ce n'est pas la coutume des Romains de livrer un homme à la mort, avant que l'accusé ait eu ses accusateurs en face, et qu'il ait eu la liberté de se défendre de son accusation.
17 Après donc qu'ils se sont réunis ici, je me suis assis sans prendre aucun délai, dès le lendemain, sur le tribunal, et j'ai commandé qu'on amenât cet homme.
