Acts 24:19 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 24:19

Who ought to have been here before thee
For they were the only persons who saw him in the temple, and what he was doing; and who by an hideous outcry raised a mob upon him, who took things upon hearsay from them:

and object, if they had ought against me;
either with respect to sedition, or blasphemy, error or heresy, if they were capable of proving anything.

Acts 24:19 In-Context

17 post annos autem plures elemosynas facturus in gentem meam veni et oblationes et vota

18 in quibus invenerunt me purificatum in templo non cum turba neque cum tumultu

19 quidam autem ex Asia Iudaei quos oportebat apud te praesto esse et accusare si quid haberent adversum me

20 aut hii ipsi dicant si quid invenerunt in me iniquitatis cum stem in concilio

21 nisi de una hac solummodo voce qua clamavi inter eos stans quoniam de resurrectione mortuorum ego iudicor hodie a vobis
