Acts 23:27 BBE

²⁵  And he sent a letter in these words:

²⁶  Claudius Lysias, to the most noble ruler, Felix, peace be with you.

²⁷  This man was taken by the Jews, and was about to be put to death by them, when I came on them with the army and took him out of danger, having knowledge that he was a Roman.

²⁸  And, desiring to get at the reason for their attack on him, I took him down to their Sanhedrin:

²⁹  Then it became clear to me that it was a question of their law, and that nothing was said against him which might be a reason for prison or death.
