Open this scene in the reader →17So when they had come together here, I made no delay, but on the next day I sat on the judgment seat and ordered the man to be brought.
18Concerning him, when the accusers stood up, they brought no charge of the evil things that I was suspecting,
19Rather, they had certain disputes with him about their own religion and about a certain Jesus who had died, whom Paul claimed to be alive.
20And since I was at a loss about the investigation concerning these matters, I asked whether he wanted to go to Jerusalem and be judged there concerning them.
21But when Paul appealed to be kept in custody for the decision of the Emperor, I ordered that he be kept in custody until I send him to Caesar.
