Acts 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.

Acts 25:25 In-Context

23 altera autem die cum venisset Agrippa et Bernice cum multa ambitione et introissent in auditorium cum tribunis et viris principalibus civitatis et iubente Festo adductus est Paulus

24 et dixit Festus Agrippa rex et omnes qui simul adestis nobiscum viri videtis hunc de quo omnis multitudo Iudaeorum interpellavit me Hierosolymis petens et hic clamantes non oportere eum vivere amplius

25 ego vero conperi nihil dignum eum morte admisisse ipso autem hoc appellante Augustum iudicavi mittere

26 de quo quid certum scribam domino non habeo propter quod produxi eum ad vos et maxime ad te rex Agrippa ut interrogatione facta habeam quid scribam

27 sine ratione enim mihi videtur mittere vinctum et causas eius non significare
